You're welcome. ![]() I say 'thank you' and the most common response I get back is 'no problem'. That makes me want to box their ears. |

I think "no problem" is an acknowledgment of thank you. As is "good," "glad it worked out," "glad I could help," "no worries," etc. Is it that "no problem" implies it couldn't have been a problem (or something else that may not be right with that exact reply) or is it that "you're welcome" is the only proper response? Just curious. |

These are more colloquialisms, but if you were born/raised in the South, you should remember these:
Dumber than a box of rocks If the Lord willing and the creek don't rise I can't remember anymore right now, but I'll add to it later.

If I thank someone, I'm thanking THEM for whatever service or act they've done on my behalf and whatever extra work they've gone through to resolve whatever issue is there. If they say you're welcome, they are saying that "I" am welcome. They are seeing my thanks and acknowledgment of the work they've done and responding in like with a personal acceptance and acknowledgement. 'No problem' has nothing to do with me or with my thanks. It's all about them and whether it was, literally, a problem for them to do their job or provide a service. For me, 'no problem' feels like a pimply faced teen with their face buried in their IPhone, barely acknowledging my words or the sentiment behind them as they half-ass their way through my order or whatever service they are supposed to provide. I want the adult response to my adult appreciation, please. Manners can go a long way. I'm showing my age today. ![]() Last edited by Gemme; 03-05-2016 at 06:57 AM. |

[QUOTE=Orema;1049502]Thanks, Gemme. I'm not sure it has anything to do with age. I've found this with Americans more than anyone else from other English-speaking countries.
I don't always use "you're welcome" because, even though I may appreciate someone's gesture, they are not necessarily 'welcome' to something of mine. To each her own ![]() Let me give this another try .. Even though someone may appreciate what I've done, they aren't necessarily welcome to it. (and thanks for presuming I meant "could" when I wrote "couldn't" in an earlier posting.) |
