At Re-find, we like to keep things simple, so when someone says “thank you,” we respond with “you’re welcome.” We once had the very bad habit of responding “no problem” or “my pleasure” or “sure thing,” but we’ve worked diligently to break ourselves of it.
In fact, we’ve made it a bit of a game with our friends who know the rule of thumb or those who, like us, are trying to re-find our charm in this area.
While it’s fine to add any of those to “you’re welcome” it’s just good manners to say or write that simple response, because the others alone can come off as dismissive. If you’ve done something nice enough to be thanked, clearly you care enough to properly acknowledge the gratitude.
Cheers!
