and it didn't bother me at all, because when she said it, she meant "thank you",
and I think it was the nicest way she could think of to say it.

I don't like it when someone leaves a message on the phone that ends with
"have a blessed day", especially when they don't know me.

If it is said to everyone, as in a check-out line, I don't like it either.

But I have to admit, I AM selective as to when it bothers me.
