I'm partial to "Cheers"

I used Cheers for a few years but I found it’s sometimes awkward for North Americans.

They associate it with alcohol toasts more than a polite sign-off.

They understand it’s a polite sign-off conceptually, but in the back of my mind I wondered if it rubs North Americans the wrong way subconsciously.

Its definitely off-putting if what comes before it is in any way "douschey" or arrogant.
