Comment on What's with the 'Thanks' people?

I think I get what you're saying.
I work in a company with a very young workforce, and the few people who do put periods on the end of their sentences and say "thanks" are out-of-the-ordinary. Usually for us, it goes:
Hey {first name},
[Request Here with Emojis Strewn Throughout]. Thank you!
[Signature line]
I think the few "Thanks" we do have are just from an older generation and / or members of HR (whom I am convinced have no soul at all)

"Thanks" is a short form of "Thank you." Maybe it has developed a negative connotation for some because of "K, thanks, bye." But for others it is like saying "morning" instead of "good morning."
