            That’s curious I knew some German gettings but never heard of it … Seems most languages have a similar one somehow kinda cool …

      I say it sometimes. Is “aight” a good enough bye, what about “later”? Sometimes if it’s a quick work call hardly anyone says bye.

        You have to tell them that you love them, everytime, or it’s not even close to a proper bye. That’s how you get an in with the HR folks really quickly so you know that they have your back. Work on easy mode, more or less. Like and subscribe for more social lifehacks.

        Nah, I don’t think “aight” suffices, but “aight, later!” would work.

      One of the best parts from Spaced (Simon Pegg & Jessica Stevenson’s season show from the early 2000s).
