Coworkers or acquaintances who NEVER say hello first

They wont make a peep until you say something to them first. They usually reply with over the top niceties and try to act like they were really focused or preoccupied. (ps - I'm talking about people who do it day after day not a one-time thing).
Know any of these folks?

Most of the time it happens at bars. Even after eye contact they won't say hi. Phug em

Maybe they just don't want to talk to you?

Why do you care? Just get to work and quit being so needy.

I don't talk to them because I don't want to talk to anyone and I assume they are the same way. They are model coworkers to me.

I rarely speak first. Maybe a head nod.
But I don't over compensate when I do speak.
I just find it silly and awkward to have to say hey each time or come up with something like "hey again" or "are you following me" or "we have to quit meeting like this" or some worn out small talk, if you pass the same person 4, 5, 6 times in the hall in a day.

If I could go an entire day without talking to anyone that would be the best day of my life.

Who the frick cares? Say hello, don't say hello. I don't give a shite one way or the other.

HEY! I'm sorry. Didn't realize you were posting today. You ALWAYS start the most AMAZING threads! You should post professionally!
I'm the ask first guy, typically. So I understand exactly what you mean, man. What I've come to understand is that you have no idea what is going on with someone. Just do your thing and don't worry about it.

I prefer nothing to a phony hello.

You are talking about people you see everyday? Maybe it is just me, but if I see someone every day, throughout the day, I don't feel the need to address them every time I see them.
It really all depends on the situation as well. If I am in the middle of doing something I might not really be paying attention to exactly who is passing by. If I see them in passing, I will casually address them "what's going on today?" "everything going good?".. some bullshite like that, but I don't think formally addressing people every day is necessary. In some ways, I think there is some awkwardness in formally addressing.. going out of your way to address people you see every day.

Yeah and he's a fricking a-hole. So I put a bunch of thumb tacts on his chair one day...he didn't say hello but he surely screamed like a bitch.

Some people don't believe in speaking unless they're spoken to.

i HATE the goodmorning i get from every employee of mine. You know what? No, it's not a good morning. And if i knew you frickers would show up on time and do your jobs, i could run this office from my house. But no, i have to come in every day to make sure you get shite done. I hate mornings for that very reason.
when they say goodmorning, i say, 'hello'.
