TeamLead: Alright, I think that wraps up this zoom. I'll check in with each of you later.
Co-worker 1: Thanks
Co-worker 2: Bye
Co-worker 3: See you all later
Me (already working on something else): Love you; bye.
That's how I roll. I always say "bye, have fun" at the end of meetings or saying bye to someone at work. No matter the situation. Has been working fine until now .
It's all about the phrasing.
Other things that suffer from this have been listed in memes.
"Butt dial." Vs. "Booty call"
And
"Forgive me father, for I have sinned." Vs. "Sorry Daddy, I've been a bad girl."
Although you can make it menacing again if you just State the amount of time and give them a thumbs up.
"1,440 minutes" 👍
Don't worry you still have ~23 hours left :)
You don't want to know what will happen when the timer runs out... (Hint: the rest of your life)
My hilarious doctor, prescribing me medicine that I will take the rest or my life:
"Take one of these every evening for the next 40 years"
Funny but what is it with that background picture? A guy who is supposed to look threatening? makes it weird lol
He sort of looks like an off-brand 'most interesting man in the world'
(I stole this meme, so I'm not sure)
"Have a nice day" isn't something people actually say to reach other in my country, it sounds so incredibly fake (probably because whenever we hear it, it's American employees repeating the line to their customers over and over, clearly not meaning it).
"Have a nice day" doesn't mean for the next 24 hours, unless you're telling someone at midnight.
Just look at your watch and give them the exact time until midnight. Problem solved and more menacing.
