>>5640819>do people genuinely think that thanking the bus driver is not courteous or polite?I cant imagine why someone would think it impolite. At worst its a bit unnecessary. I do it most of the time though provided the bus driver wasnt surly or bad in some way.
>>5640824I do that too. I thank pretty much everyone who does anything for me be they the butcher, cashier, driver, or the person who hands out carrier bags at the supermarket. I usually tell them to have a good afternoon or weekend as well.
