Do you thank delivery drivers?

[HeidiHoNeighbour]

I always do but often get met with a confused look as they walk away, like it doesn’t happen normally.

Just now, knock on door, parcel on step and can over drive, I call out “thank you” and get “oh, erm you’re welcome” back!
Am I the only one?

Always

Isn't it just a reflex, someone hands you something you say thank you?

I wouldn't say it's particularly necessary for them to respond though

Yes of course

Yes always.

Yup, I always thank them.

They’re giving me presents from me, to me. Course I’m going to say thanks.

I’d also say thanks regardless hahah.

We have a tin of wrapped sweets in the porch with a sign for all delivery people to help themselves as a thank you, we usually are around to verbally thank them too.

It's basic manners to thank someone, I always have and always will. We've brought our boys up to do the same. I'd pull them up on it if they didn't.

Always! It’s just good manners.

Why would you not?

Well yes, I do because it's good manners

Always. And to people working in shops, taxi drivers, waiting staff, bar staff, the bin men if I'm getting into my car as they pass my house. Common courtesy

Of course I say thanks, why wouldn't I?

I say thank you to everyone that’s done something for me. The most reason one is saying thank you to the people manning the doors in shops when they let me in!

Always.

Always.

I can't imagine not thanking them, I think it would be more awkward not to.

Of course, saying thank you hardly is high standard to hit.
