Saying 'Good Morning' to People

I just love Good Mornings!

Proper only at the end of a workout though.

Some people don’t deserve it.
I call them, co-workers.

See, this is what I was thinking. I love them but get weird looks when I do them. No one will look me in the face. It’s the strangest damn thing.

They’ll stop saying hello to you all together.

Monty Python FTW!?!?

What I hate, is when i’m walking past someone, we make eye contact, but when I say “hi”, or “how are you” I get NOTHING.

It’s just ignorant.

Just acknowledge these people. It’s not hard.

That pisses me off like none other. I usually have my Ipod in whenever I have to walk around campus though, saves me from saying anything to the 10,000 people I pass on the side walk everyday. I’d be hoarse by the time I made it to class.[/quote]

I can understand the sheer numbers issue, but I don’t know why just someone just can’t say hi, nod, or whatever.

I’ll live either way.

I’m quite annoyed when people say bless you after you sneeze. Stupidest manner rule ever.

Don’t go to work till noon.

“good morning” is fine, but I can’t stand “you look tired”. Wtf?

thats exactly what I thought as I read the beginning post!

My “work” is at the gym in the morning and I don’t even say anything to anybody, I don’t even want them in the weights area at all. I like space!

would you like having everyone say good morning to you as your working out?

Is it as bad when you go into a place like “best buy” and have a person every 10 sq ft of the store ask if they can help you find something

If you were Chuck Norris you could get away with round housing everyone that bothers you :slight_smile:

Depends who the person is.[/quote]

Maybe it might be somebody who doesn’t actually exist?

I think it would be very amusing if about 20 people showed up all within a few minutes of each other to start the work day and every time another walked into the area, there was another round of “You look tired.” “You look tired.” “You look tired.” etc.

Rattler, it’s a new day and I wanted to be the first to say…

GOOD MORNING!!!

I like it when people say good morning. You know when you walk into the office extra early and there is only one other person there and they greet you? It’s nice to have that first human contact of the day.

It helps her squats.

Instead of “good morning,” don your best Arnold voice and hit them with a “Hello, cutey-pie!”

Sitting in my break room eating lunch with a couple co-workers. This lady we work with walks in fresh from a cruise. Cool you went on a cruise; whatever. We’re all watching sportscenter when out of no where she makes a “witty” joke: “I think I’m going through fruity drink withdrawls.” We don’t acknowledge her at all, no laugh, no scoff, nothing. It’s like to us, she’s not there.

A minute goes by of her just standing there looking at each of us one at a time waiting for someone to give a shit and her Jenny Craig microwavable meal is finished. She grabs it, walks over to us, looks my buddy Jeff in the face and starts telling him about her cruise. She tells him about all they did was drink and how her tab was expensive yada yada yada my ears are bleeding.

It really grinds my gears when this type of shit happens. No one asked you about your fuckin cruise. No one laughed at your crappy joke making light of going through alcohol withdraws. I’m glad there weren’t any babies around or I might’ve punched one in the face.

Yeah man I know what you mean. It’s annoying when people expect you to ask about their vacation. I can’t stand it… Like shit, I’m stuck here in cold as fuck Toronto while you guys are in some tropical hoo haa of a place… I DON’T WANT TO KNOW

Not only that, it’s the people who assume that they’re that fucking interesting that our life is worse when they’re aren’t around; like the sun only shines when they’re around. I thought it was funny I didn’t even notice this lady was gone until i saw her this morning. I personally would be happier if this lady never spoke within ear shot of me she’s that FUCKING annoying.

Thanks for understanding brutha …

Are you done yet? Yadayadayada. You’re like a chatty Kathy doll who keeps pulling your own string. Nobody here cares about your bullshit story.

Now, how does it feel?
