How often you say "Thank You"?

Being grateful is one of the character traits of good people or successful people. Saying thank you is very important and it matters much to me because I want to be thankful always to God and to people who do me good, and even to those people who caused me pain because I am learning a lesson. I hope that I stay and remain thankful for whatever state I am...

Hi careguardn, I automatically always say thank you, there is always enough time for that, and I also get annoyed with people who don't do this. My son has also been brought up to always say thank you. On one occassion I returned several of the local boys back to the village after a football game and one had asked for a lift, he wasn't part of the arrangment between parents that we have. He failed to say thank you at the other end but I was proud of the other boys who told him he was rude and to return and say thank you.
In this culture the word thank you is always returned with either the words for 'you're welcome' or the lovely 'teepota' which means it's nothing.

Although there is only two simple words,but it's not very easy for anybody to speak out when they accept some favors.It's not a habit problem but experiences from childhood.It depends on many different elements such as growth environment,parenting,home education even some what food you usually eat................... etc.

I know people usually don't like someone who never say a "Thank You",they enjoy hearing this wave of sound.But sometimes "Thank You" is not only on your mouth,it needs action too.Anyway,keep saying "Thank You" will make you become a popular person,Yeah?

I say thankyou everytime someone does me a favor or gives me something. It is really important because we should be grateful to God for what we have that comes from Him, and so that He would bless us more! Even when we are in a hurry or in a bad mood, we should not forget to say "thank you" at all times!

I find I say thank you quite often, I think it has to do with how I was raised though because I know I also apologize way too much! It's something that some people do and some people don't.

Same to you that whenever someone does me a favor i would say "thank you" . It's a kind of habit . Interesting that i don't realize whether i say or not when i'm in a good mood or in a hurry. However i seldom say any thanks to my hubby or any other family members . Should we also say "thank you" to them? If we say "thank you "to them does it mean that we become strangers?

I was brought up in a very conservative family. My mom would shoot dirty looks if I ever failed to say "please" or "thank you"...so on...

It comes naturally to me these days so I say it whenever someone does something for me, even in restaurants, shops, etc. People say I'm too polite or too nice but I think sometimes a simple "thank you" doesn't take much effort. It can also brighten someone's day. It does work for me, especially when I'm down.

I used to work in a coffee shop when I was a teenager and sometimes, a simple thank you would make me smile because most people don't know how to say that.

I admit that I've been guilty of forgetting at one point or another but not done deliberately though.

Now I'm an adult, my Mom's way of raising me did stick. Today, I often get comments by my associates/ colleagues that I'm a well mannered person which I find nice and flattering.

Good manners matter to me. In fact, one of my biggest peeves is rudeness and rude people.

hey,friend.i always thanks somebody for helping me.i want to help somebody,and thanks me a lot,i must be happy about it.

I live in London and I don't think there is anything else which you say more than "Thank you" and "Sorry". Its a nice gesture and definitely softens the other person and expresses gratitude well. I have been doing this since childhood and its been a good experience all the time I have said this. People give a smile and are more willing to help than usual.

I say thank you whenever i feel i need to thanks somebody.Even it was a small favour,or when im in hurry..i will still say thank you to others. It seems like a habit to me.My brother was just like you,he will not thank anybody if he was not in the mood or badmood,or in hurry.Never mind, sometimes we just have to understand someones in that kind of situation .
