Is a 2nd ‘Thank You’ replacing ‘You’re Welcome’ in conversation?

You say ‘Thank you’ to a person and they reply with ‘Thank you’ with upward inflection on ‘you.’ Normally in a business setting but can be other times also.
Is ‘You’re Welcome’ in danger?

Im actually trying you to figure out if this ever happens. Does the second person say it like "Thank YOU"
Thats the only way it doesnt sound retarded.

I know 1 person at work who responds with you are welcome. I'm not even sure where the hell the thank you thank you came from.

I do a traditional Japanese bow.

In the NW people don't say You're Welcome, they say You Bet!

ive noticed myself doing this a lot lately

For some reason "you're welcome" sounds pretentious, or like you were expecting a thank you.
Also related to this topic, I feel that I must include a "thank you" in every email I send for work or else I will come across as demanding/harsh/unappreciative. It's out of control.

Holy shite baw, I think you're right. You see it more in a transaction based setting. But you may be on to something here.

Posted on 10/24/17 at 11:10 am to weagle99

I could never respect someone who said this. It just wreaks of cowardice.

I know this will still rustle people, but 9/10 times I hear "no problem" "sure thing" "you got it" "absolutely" or something similar.

No problem!
