"Did you have a good Bank Holiday?"

[ArtyFish]

I've been in work for about 45 mins and already I've had 6 people asking me if I had a nice bank holiday.

It's bad enough when you've had a holiday and you have to replay those stories over and over. Having said that I also accept that I'm one of those people who feel socially bound to ask if people had a good time to. Personally I think any human interaction before 7am should be banned in the office :)

@notacooldad There’s a lot of “not bad for a Monday” around here! 😂

I get you OP. I worked over 34hr over sat to Mon and still prople say did you have a nice break.

Haha, I would annoy then! I follow up 'Did you have a good bank holiday?' with 'What did you get up to?''weather wasn't great was it?' 'How was your journey in? There's so much less traffic in half term isn't there?' And so on

I suspect a lot of us are Finnish in spirit -
