Is it rude to ask someone if they're having a better morning?

I don’t think it’s rude, it indicates you were paying attention to what they told you before. Of course, there’s how one asks: "Are things better today ?" might get a more positive response than, say, "Are you still in a bad mood ?" 😅

nothing wrong with that at all.

That question would come off as snarky no matter what tone was used.

It would just have the same vibe as asking someone if they are having a good time when they are shoveling horse manure.

Maybe you meant well by asking but such questions just go over like backhanded compliments.

That was thoughtful of you…

Yes,that's nice,though probably best to ask a more general question,like "How are you" or "How are things" - something along those lines,without suggesting too direct a link to the way that they were previously feeling.

Seems like reasonable question to ask them. unless you're saying it sarcastically 🤣

I ask people that too if they had a previous bad whatever.

Only before their first cup of coffee...😅

I am better.

Bully, much?
It's probably pretty safe for you there, in the team of bullies all laughing.

I think it’s okay, shows you care and we’re paying attention.
