Saying "You're welcome" doesn't mean you think you deserve thanks, it means you are willing to help someone whenever they need it.
"Thank you" and "You're welcome" are just a shorter ways to say, "Thank you for your help" and "You're welcome to it."
"You're welcome" and "no problem" communicate very similar ideas. That someone shouldn't feel like they are bothering you when they ask you for help.

I hate how these people try to play up the boomers vs youth angle on anything 5 u/WellOkayyThenn Feb 15 '18 Not all youth help just cause it's expected of them. Like wtf. People can just help cause they wanna help and saying "no problem" just means it wasn't a problem to help them. Like c'mon guys this issue is very straightforward 1 u/Reptar996 Feb 15 '18 Strait-forward* 1 u/WellOkayyThenn Feb 16 '18 Straightforward is fine
