My last trip I walked by the oncoming captain and said "all good, have a great day!" and he yelled after me "is it a good jet?" He literally could not fathom that I would pass by him without telling him how the rides were in the opposite direction, my last two reroutes, a bad joke, something about not working too hard, and saying "good jet".
I do the same as you and get the same yelling response . Never fails a passenger says. “I sure hope so “.
