Have a nice day

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Have a nice day is commonly spoken valediction, typically spoken by retail employees or clerks to customers after a sale, particularly in North America.

Elsewhere its usage may lead to raised eyebrows as being indicative of an expression spoken without thought and therefore an expression of meaningless insincerity. In the UK, McDonalds restaurants tried to implement what was then a uniform greeting from the US into their UK restaurants. Isolated examples of threats against staff and general unhappiness with the expression led to McDonalds to abandon the expressions use in the UK.[citation needed]

It is also the title of several creative works:
