"Thanks, you too."
Nothing good about it, apparently.
Morning? You mean good forenoon to you sir!
Meanwhile me, greeting everybody with a succinct "Morning!" at every time of day.
Reminds me of my Polish colleague who once arrived at the office and said: "I would say good morning. But it's not a good morning. "
The previous night our manager had taken the team out for dinner and drinks, paid for by the company. It wasn't a good morning for any of us π
Reminds me of my Lithuanian colleague, who would walk into the office and not say anything. If you greeted her, she'd cast you a wary look like what's so special about this morning to make it "good" mothafucka
I like to stick with a simple "hello" so I don't have to keep track of time (e.g. during meetings across timezones or even when I'm so scatterbrained that day that I lose track of local time) and it's also less presumptuous.
People have accepted that 'morning' is my standard greeting regardless of the time of day. It's even become a thing everyone says within my close friend group.
As a teenager I'd sometimes just randomly sprinkle in complete nonsense as a greeting, like 'wtf is oatmeal', or 'I speak for the trees', and hardly anyone noticed
Same here! I was already prone to saying "Morning!" anytime, as is... but after working nights for years, it has become permanent. I stopped trying to figure out what time of day it is when greeting people, so it's always morning lol
But I rarely say, "Have a good morning". It's normally just "Have a good day"
When I am in a bad mood I answer with: "And what exactly is good about it?"
-Easy on the pipe, wizard.
Now is the only moment that matters. Don't worry about tomorrow or relive yesterday.
Sou ds like a Ron Swanson joke.
It's probably from the same year parks and rec started too
I saw an edgelord one too.

One morning, a few weeks back, I made eye contact with someone who was obviously having a rough morning. I knew I shouldn't engage but I also didn't want to ignore them, so I gave a quick good morning. They promptly responded, "fuck your morning."
I think of that interaction every day.
