Hate your job?
Personally, I like W.C. Fields' advice: Start each day with a smile and get it over with.
Workers have daily smile scans
Japanese railway workers face enforced "smile scans" every morning in a bid to boost their customer services, it has been claimed.
More than 500 staff at Keihin Electric Express Railway are expected to be subjected to daily face scans by "smile police" bosses.The "smile scan" software, developed by the Japanese company Omron, produces a sweeping analysis of a smile based on facial characteristics, from lip curves and eye movements to wrinkles.
After scanning a face, the device produces a rating between zero to 100 depending on the estimated value of the fulfilled potential of a person's biggest smile.
