I’ve heard it explained that “hey” used to be more of an urgent way to get someone’s attention, rather than a casual “hello” like it is now, so it sounded rude to some older folks.

    I’m not taking offense, I’m just trying to help y’all understand why using the term “no problem “ versus “you’re welcome”, in a hospitality setting, is wrong. If you fail to understand why, that’s your problem.

          Quite frankly, I couldn’t give a flying fuck concerning your opinion on whether or not using the phrase ‘no problem’ within the context of hospitality services is correct or not. I was just making a silly joke

          But judging by how everyone else is responding to you, I’m pretty confident in saying almost everyone here also couldn’t give a flying fuck about your opinion.

            I’m sorry if I gave anyone the impression that I gave a fuck what these zoomers and young millennials thought of my opinion, they’ve already proven they are socially inept.

              Hey, just in case it helps, the thing you’re doing (replying to every single comment with basically the same response and insulting people by calling them “socially inept”) is why people think you give a flying fuck 🤗
