Did you teach your children to say, "Thank You"?
How often do you say those 2 simple words at work?
"Not a problem"...how often do people say that after you say, "Thank You"?
Whatever happened to, "You're Welcome"?
Is "Not a problem" halfway between "Yes it is a Problem" and "I sure hate these pleasantries"?
Is "Not a problem" a clever way of bringing problem-thinking into the situation?
We should take these possibly small yet possibly very important communications more seriously...and make sure they do not become rote lukewarm Bad Habits.
