Alright sbektas!
 
Yes, we can use it as a greeting like hi or hello. I would only really use it with close family and friends, though - it is quite informal.

wow , this is a wonderful episode of this series  which I prefer to listening to ,and this episode recalls the  memory about my childhood . At that time , I also had a nickname which was called pirate . The nickname is such similar with Joe 's nickname ---pest . All of us were usually impolite for others when we were a child, making rough actions and mess things ,because of this , everyone owns a varied and colorful childhood which makes us unforgettable now .
