In inpatient psychiatry I tell my coworkers “I hope your shift is mind-numbingly boring” or something similar (keyword being boring) because in my line of work, interesting (usually) = bad.

What’re yours?

“Bless Your Face”, I borrowed that one a long ways back, it seems to make people smile.

In french we tell people “je te dis merde !”, it’s the equivalent to break a leg, literally just means “I’m saying ‘shit’ to you!”.

In Czech we tell actors to break their necks rather than legs. Sounds safer to me.

Us Germans are extra thorough. We wish both, breaking neck and leg.

“Hope the night is manageable.” I work in a field where people aren’t sure how to wish me a good night at work.
