What does it say in the US constitution that you're required by law to say 'Nice to meet you" to every person you meet? Just give them a stink eye and say 'Hello".

Oh, are we only supposed to say it if we mean it? I still say it even though I can't stand some (most) people. *shrugs*

I assumed this —- or meeting the person hired to replace her or downsize her office. So when you have to be polite but what you really mean is “I had hoped to go my whole life without meeting you.”
