Why can't you just say hello once in the morning and be done with it? Why are you saying hi to me as I walk by you on the way to the copier? i just said hi 30 minutes ago when I got in the door ! I'm going back to working with guys outside, i just can't take it anymore.

  1. I like when people say "hi" when I walk by.. doesn't matter if I just saw them or not..

    sorry that people being kind to you pisses you off, though.


  2. The next time they say "hello," say "HEY!!!!  It is GREAT to see you" back in a really excited voice and then give them a big hug.  Repeat every time they say "hello" more than once in a day.  I promise you they will stop.

  3. People react differently to good manners. If that is not your cup of tea, nod and move on. At least give an acknowledgment.

  4. Okay, how about this: why do some people feel like they don't have to say it AT ALL? I used to work in a school and whilst walking the halls, I would see various teachers and say hello to each one as I'd see them. It seemed to be very tedious for some to actually open their mouths in a greeting. I looked at it as being POLITE. (I'm kinda wacky that way...)

  5. You question made me laugh! People do this to be friendly.Just don't say it back anymore after the first time and I am sure they will stop saying it to you all of the time.

  6. jeeze they are just being friendly!!  calm down!

  7. I would rather they say hello than be in a bad mood all day

  8. Because people feel uncomfortable with silence.
