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.

Because I’m part of it…?
Part of the conversation talking about how older people get upset at how a server answers them? Yes.
If you say you don’t care, then there’s no reason for you to comment about that aspect of the conversation.
I’m trying to explain to the socially inept why using certain terminology in a hospitality setting can be frowned upon. Unsurprisingly, they can’t grasp this very simple concept.
Maybe the older people just shouldn’t get upset? Why do we need to pander to them? Cant they just allow us to respond to thank you the way we want to?
Goes both ways. And yes I have reason, this is a child Conversation of one of my comments.
Society should stop pandering to them, eventually there would be no places they could go without accepting they’ve lost. Plenty of places do fine already being hospital under other means.
