YOU'VE GOT MAIL!

For one, in some cultures asking an obvious question is just a polite way of acknowledging the situation. So for example, if you just put your jacket on and start clocking out, a co-worker asking "oh, you done for the day and heading out now?" doesn't deserve you sneering at them like an idiot, scoffing, and saying "uh duh, just like I do every day at this time" when it's likely they knew the answer, but were just asking as a polite way of acknowledging the situation.

But even if they were genuinely unsure that you're leaving even though it seems obvious to you from context clues, so what? What does being rude and condescending to them achieve? Maybe they couldn't sleep last night so they're really out of it today, maybe they're dissociating, maybe they're about to pass out from low blood sugar, maybe some other employees sometimes put on their jacket and only clock out briefly but come back.

Might I suggest the guys going fishing?

Have a great day!

Everytime I walk into a library I think, "Wow, this is what society looks like when it's actually doing its job."

Free heat.

Free seats.

Free internet.

Free knowledge.

If aliens landed tomorrow, I'd take them to a library first just to prove we're capable of getting one thing right.
