Non-standard Calls

Hi All,

I was just wondering if you could clear up a few questions for me on non-standard call procedures. Many pilots add on a G'day or Good afternoon onto initial and/or final calls to frequencies. As a CPL student, I have been told not to do this, as it increases controllers workloads. However, more and more often I hear controllers initiating the friendliness and am wondering what you all had to say about it?

Much apprecitated
