How do you respond to “thank you”?

Question

Usually I’ll just instinctively smile and cheerfully say “uh huh!” or “yep!”, but some people find that rude I guess. Sometimes I’ll say “you’re welcome”, but I sort of feel like that’s essentially saying “oh yeah I’m so great you’re welcome that I did something for you” lol.

Do you think it’s rude to say anything less than “you’re welcome” or “my pleasure”? What did you normally say?

Answer 1

You could always say "no problem", "happy to do it" or some other thing to acknowledge their thanks.

Answer 2

A quick 'You're welcome' or 'Not at all' is plenty, with a pleasant smile or nod.

Answer 3

You are very much welcome.

Answer 4

I just say your'e welcome, nothing else to say really, don't make too much of it, it is not really important is it?

Answer 5

“My pleasure”, and a smile.
