Doesn't anyone say "Thank you" anymore?
When you go out of your way to help someone you never met, is it expecting too much for them to email or PM you a "Thank you"? Am I old fashioned or out of step with social norms?
Examples:
- Sent/gave someone a factory turbo manual.
- Some guy needed a hard to get connector for his project in a hurry and vendor he tried was out of stock. Spent $26 to overnight him one.
- Some guy needed dimension drawing in order to create 915 transmission tools so I dug through my stuff and emailed them off.
I try to tell myself "Hey, maybe they were raised by wolves, they don't know any better." but these were all Pelican's - some of the nicest people on the net. This make me question if I'm the one who's out of step.
Thoughts?
-Chris
EDIT: It turns out the recipient of the Turbo manual did send me a Thank-you but it got lost in the email.
