I say that when my boss tells me to do something that I don’t think is a good idea.

No problem is something younger people use. It’s short for that won’t be a problem or not a problem. It does not imply there ever was a problem.

I think he caught his wife cheating on him and then she punctuated the moment with 'no problem'

What about “Saul good”? Would this imply that it was once good but not anymore? Or is that tots different.

I'm sure I'm not adding to this thread, but I'm just adding my vote for the Boss.

I'm an early Gen X'er. I can't stand "no problem". Oh...was I bothering you?

"You're welcome." or "Cheers" will suffice.

I'll also allow "No worries, mate" if you say it in an Aussie accent.

Cheers? I would take a “no problem” from now to eternity more than “cheers”.

If I’m paying someone for a service at the agreed upon price, I don’t need to know whether or not it was a “problem” for you to provide it. I think it should be implied that it’s NOT without saying anything.

This is where I mostly seem to encounter it and why I think it’s a dumb line, after someone says ‘thank you.’

Who decided you’re welcome is no longer in fashion?

Okay boomer.

‘No worries’ is better, but probably won’t like that either.

Should have just told him that it’s a common term in his culture.
