[Ads-l] "have a good day" = "goodbye"

[Joel Berson]

The standard ending for a business telephone conversation seems to have changed from "goodbye" to "have a good/great day".  Just as the end of an in person business encounter is now also "have a good/great day".


Has the telephone habit been written about?

Joel
