सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Saying 'Bonne journée' is almost mandatory when leaving a small shop. It is part of the 'social contract' of politeness. In Quebec, 'Bonjour' can sometimes be used as a goodbye, which is rare in France. The Swiss are known for being very precise with their greetings. You might hear 'Bon après-midi' more strictly used between 12 PM and 5 PM. Greetings are often more extended. You might wish a good day and then ask about the person's family.
The 'Departure' Rule
Always remember: 'Bonne journée' is for leaving. If you use it to say hello, people will think you are very confused!

Don't use this after 6 PM. Switch to 'Bonne soirée' to avoid sounding like you've lost track of time.
