Love this. Especially 2b. I hated this about working in a cafe.

I'm only talking to you at all because I'm being paid to do so. I'm only smiling because my job is customer service. I'm being nice because you're a fellow human, not because I want you in any way

I’m only smiling because my job is customer service.

That in many cases smiling is mandatory is a revolting part of customer service in the US.
