Default Re: Simple email ettiquette question

When I am finished with a project for a co-worker I usually send the "Thanks for all your help, it helped tremendously on this project" email and call it good. Better to send one, than many.

I think it's a waste of time, but minimal. I just say thank you in the original e-mail with the question.

Yeah, I think I'll go with the "Thanks in advance" technique from now on.

Thanks in advance is extremely annoying. And it doesn't count as thanks. Even when people say 'thanks in advance' or WAY more annoyingly "TIA" I still appreciate a "thank you" afterwards. WTF, if someone can't spend 1 second saying thank you why should I take the time to help them out?

Yup. It doesn't even begin to make sense.

I'd be more likely to do it if...

co-worker is female

or

it was a fairly big one time thing - if you are going to be constantly exchanging info via email, it would be too many ty's in there..

or

if I could add some comment to it like "thanks, works perfectly"
