People have accepted that 'morning' is my standard greeting regardless of the time of day. It's even become a thing everyone says within my close friend group.

If its a group of people I just mutter bunch of things: "hi" "morning" "happy birthday" "merry christmas" (doesn't matter what day or time)

As a teenager I'd sometimes just randomly sprinkle in complete nonsense as a greeting, like 'wtf is oatmeal', or 'I speak for the trees', and hardly anyone noticed

Especially if there's a lineup of people waiting to shake hands. "Hello. How are you. Happy Easter. Gondor calls for aid."

Oh hey, I do the same! Is it 5pm, 5am, 11:51am? Morning!

Same here! I was already prone to saying "Morning!" anytime, as is... but after working nights for years, it has become permanent. I stopped trying to figure out what time of day it is when greeting people, so it's always morning lol

But I rarely say, "Have a good morning". It's normally just "Have a good day"
