Richie,

No, I just spoke to someone at one of the people who work at Trader Joe's in Ventura, and he said, my pleasure you are welcome!

Change of the times Richie Alan Naggar 

Every generation has its own expressions I guess...

You are right.  I just accept their response :)

It's still your day, Richie! I say, "You're welcome" or "My Pleasure" too! 

To me, 'No problem' infers a negative - as if to say there should be a problem but, they're not going to hold it against you!

The times are a-changing and we probably need to change with the times. Otherwise, we will be called the 'old fogies' of yesteryear.

I just say; I'm glad it wasn't a problem for you.

Well you are very welcome, and thank you kindly!
I will take any gesture of kindness, no matter how it's expressed. If the intent is there, I'll take it.

I now say - de nada

That is a far out and out of sight question. Seriously, every generation is a bit different and older generations want them to mirror their behavior. FYI, I actually said far out.

Correct manners are slipping by the wayside. Should be your welcome. No problem is when someone runs over YOUR foot with a grocery cart.

No worries Richie Alan Naggar No worries.

Depends on what people are taught.

Chic-fil-A employees respond with My Pleasure and I find that very polite and respectful.

  The upscale restaurants here won't allow their servers to say, "No Problem".  They make them say "My pleasure" or "You are welcome".

When manners are no longer taught or followed, a generation becomes lost to it. 

Richie Alan Naggar times are changing. Good questions!

I hate that.... I like hearing you're welcome.... 

Shows how you were raised. Ever been in line at the subway waiting for your sandwich artist creation and heading down the line with the sneeze glass. And you say please and thank you but the guy in front of you grunts this, that but no please, no thank you and seems irritated. It is not hard to appreciate when a person does anything for you. It is not just their job but they are serving you. Show appreciate is what I taught the four kids as a single full time Dad.

Richie Alan Naggar This is right up there with "What will you guys have?" when my Wife and I go to a restaurant. "I'll have ________. No problem!"

The way we speak changes with each generation.  Imagine 30 years ago speaking with all our tech terms that we use each day.  People then would think we are speaking another language.

"No problem."

I have no issue with that. However, it is the silience that is troubling.

Do they have some invisible earbud preventing them hearing 'thank you?"

Do I need to grab them by the lapel and repeat..."I said Thank YOU!:

Then I get, 'What's your problem?"

"No problem, " I' would reply.

I have seen this also with the young folks, and I would say you are welcome, and do when my clients thank you.  Or, my pleasure! 

Each Generation has a way of communicating.  I'm okay with all of them!

Some customs get old, like how men used to wear suits & hats everywhere they went but being polite & respectful should never go out of style. That's what I teach my kids but you can't say the same for everyone.

No problem seems to be the response. I hear it a lot on TV too ... I like to watch Dr. Jeff the Mt. Vet and the doctors there, one in particular, says "no problem" all the time.  People are crying with gratitude thanking him and he casually says ... no problem. 

I prefer you are welcome or you are most welcome. I'm happy to help. 

Anthony Acosta - ALLATLANTACONDOS.COM nailed this one!

I still say "you're welcome" - seems like the right thing to say.

If someone else says "no problem", I just figure they mean "you're welcome"

I'll accept any of those responses, just as long as they respond 

We are much to casual now. A definite sign of the times.

I do not mind, we can not fix others, and only in charge for our own words and actions.

I am from 'You are Welcome' geneation, too Richie Alan Naggar.

"No problem" means if it were a problem I wouldn't have helped you.

I find many common expressions become overused at times... another one is: "how are you?"... and the answer is?.... "I'm fine"... and really does the person want to know how you really are?  and are you really fine?... 

It is what it is, Richie... at this point in time I'm happy if someone says thank you and/or responds to a thank you.

We hear 'no problem' all of the time rather than 'you are welcome'.

No problem. 

Yes, it is Welcome in my vocabulary.

friggin boils my blood when a milennial answers no problem, when they make a coffee (or anything) as a service agent, and i say Thank you.. they say no problem... i want to stuff my REALLY.... down their throat.. its NOT a problem to do your friggin job???  strong letter to follow .. this country is going to be a third world nation before we know it

My father-in-law took particular exception to the "no problem" response, also citing the more proper "you're welcome". My pet peeve is the "ah-ha" response after a thank you.

It depends.  The vast majority of the time I'll use "My Pleasure" mainly because people seem to like that more than "you're welcome."  With friends I'll sometimes use "Anytime" or "Anytime Bro".  At one job, we routinely used "No Prob" and "No Prob Bob".

Not a problem!  

Yes.

I hate the no problem response
