Do Amish people smile?

Mkay, so yesterday I paid a visit to our local Subway in order to obtain some food.

(Wait. Why am I talking like this?)

I was hungry. REALLY hungry.

Anyways, an Amish woman was working. I thought, "Hey, cool." After helping some previous customers, she asked me for my order. Oddly, she made no eye contact. I found this a bit peculiar, but decided to ignore it. It was only after a minute or two of her preparing my sandwich that I noticed something was wrong.

She didn't smile.

Not once.

She bagged my delicious Spicy Italian, and I simply said, "Have a good day", just to be polite. She had a simple reply.

"Okay."

Now, most people would assume that saying, "Have a good day" mean that one hopes that the other has a good day. I guess she thought I was COMMANDING her to have a good day...

Amish are strange.

Amen.
