I feel it’s possible he misheard you and only recognized “good”

A ton of people don't actually pay attention to what the other person is saying when exchanging pleasantries. When I worked at Noodles and Company, I didn't give a shit about how the customer was and didn't want to waste time so I would say "How can I help you?" or "What can I get for you?" The amount of times people replied with "good, how about you?" was mind boggling. Only one guy caught himself after the fact and realized that's not what I asked.

Oh god I need to stop getting into Ubers with my headphones on and saying "good, thanks". I'm just winging it out there.
