Does anyone randomly answer your own greetings when confronted with rude cashiers or customer reps? For example "Hey how's your day going"...response "....(scans item..looks down at her phone...chews gum like a cow)....". So you reply "that's outstanding, I'm doing faaaaaaantastic this fine day. Definitely cannot wait to open one of those cold ones"
Similar if I hold de doe open for someone and they don't say anything I always say yourwelcome
ME TOO!! Normally all that gets me is a dirty look, though.
I get those at times but only when it's someone I don't want to speak to so I hold them closed . Namely at work if I'm honest. I find over the last half dozen years or so I'm absolute shat at small talk. Much has to do with our environments possibly.
