Sometimes, I might say, "No thanks needed You earned my respect."

[BadApple69]

You didn’t have the one I say the most!


When someone at work says thank you my response is always “go screw yourself”.
I have a reputation I need to keep up at work. Saying anything else would ruin my reputation.

@BadApple69 You probably know this...

The Osmonds, led by Donny, sang "One Bad Apple don't spoil the whole bunch" a long time ago.

Depends on the situation.

"You're welcome" will do much of the time.

"No problem" if it's a matter of a minor inconvenience on my part.

"It's my pleasure" or "you're very welcome" if I am providing a (typically paid) service to someone.

Great question, Tom! I use many different things to a thank you, depending on who, what, when, and where. It's always safe and appropriate to say "you're welcome" in any situation. However, sometimes I'll say " merci a' vouz" which is the same as "Thank you to YOU!". Other times I might say " my pleasure". If I'm talking to a Spanish speaker, the answer "De nada" literally means "it's nothing".

All depends... I might say happy to help, maybe de nada... mix it up y'all

[ElenaLena]

It depends.. I use different phrases with different people and situations..

I always reply tho.. I might say “you bet” and “of course” plus what you mentioned..

with my closest friends I use “awww” sometimes 😄

[OneViewpoint]

I usually say, "Well, I didn't think you'd figure it out own your own."

Or in the case of a woman thanking me for a compliment. "You look like you don't get many compliments and you could use one."

[midnightmoon05]

sometimes I say, "you are most welcome"."anytime". "you are too kind"

if they know other languages, I would try to say it in their language.

Depends on the situation and if they are sincere or not.

[Billlewis]

I sometimes respond with, 'It ain't no thang but a chicken wang'

[xawyx-3]

Usually "you're welcome", or "no problem".

[exitseven]

I usually say your welcome bit sometimes to my friends I say "No Charge"
