Comment on What's with the 'Thanks' people?

I think it’s just to be polite. It’s nice to thank people for doing something for you. Would you rather they just aggressively bark orders at you like a drill sergeant?

I don’t know that this will have any impact on your opinion, but here’s a reply that provides the context I should have included in my original post.

Yeah that guy sounds shady… He’s clearly putting a thanks at the end to make it seem like it is “no big deal” in hopes that you’ll just do it and not ask any questions.
I would respond to that with something like “I’d be happy to send you some new Air pods, just have requisitions send me the request and I’ll get them to you right away! Thanks!” lol
If he still won’t take the hint let him know you’ll be happy to reach out to IT so they can investigate why the request system isn’t working properly for him 😉
