I work in an office/engineering environment. Often I receive emails with a simple "thank you" in them. Is it rude to not reply with a "you're welcome" ?
I usually look at the "thank you" emails as an acknowledgment that my email was received and the information in it was sufficient. Usually they seem to come from those who hold positions higher than mine, hence the reason I am concerned with the proper etiquette.
Thanks

no longer in uncomplicated terms is it the automated reaction, it is the the main suitable option one. What might you have them say, your excellence? by ability of announcing "thank you," it is such as you think of that he/she did you a choose by ability of ringing up the groceries; the nerve of a few people to respond graciously! Why might you even thank them interior the 1st place in case you probably did no longer sense like that they had carried out something worth thanking? ingredient be conscious: This remark is dumb: You, on the different hand, did no longer do the cashier any favours by ability of figuring out to purchase to your groceries there, you probably did the save bosses a favour! the place do you think of the save bosses get money to pay the wages of their cashiers? it is not from robbing the proletariat - it is from consumers who do the save the choose by ability of giving it the possibility to serve them. All individuals of the business enterprise are made extra powerful off each time a shopper purchases a stable from that business enterprise's shelf.

I get so fed up with hearing "you're welcome"!!
I have been in restaurants & the waitress would say 'you're welcome' every time I thanked her for some service - in the end I would just nod in appreciation so as not to hear her say it again.
I suggest you use another phrase, or take some other action, as suggested by other respondent to your question.

I would send something like, "It was a pleasure. Please let me know if you need any additional help," or "Glad I could help. Let me know how it goes." But I don't think it's necessary.

I wouldn't as if you send a your welcome e-mail, the receipient will be confused as what to do next.

A simple "you're welcome" is always welcome.
I'd say continue being yourself.
