minus-squareCubitOom@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·1 day agoNormally, at about 10 feet away I try to make eye contact and smile/nod during approach, then I’ll verbally greet at about 5 feet away. This was something I learned while working at a resort and it stuck with me. By American standards, this is considered fast and early.

minus-squareCheesus@lemmy.calinkfedilinkarrow-up1·9 hours agoYup, can confirm. Also, if it’s past 6 pm, make sure to switch to ‘bonsoir’. If it’s someone I know, I just say ‘salut’. It’s way more casual, and can also be used as goodbye to boot.
