I'm thanking you...

That has got up my nose since I was a waitress back in 1900and frozen to death..... (alright, 25 years ago)... when one particular regular customer used it EVERY sodding time.... to me, it's even worse than NOT saying thank you at all!

I KNOW you're thanking me... I've just taken your order and served you with a delicious meal of rainbow trout, new potatoes, peas and carrots, with tartare sauce and a lemon wedge followed by apple strudel with clotted cream and a coffee.... 3 courses, 3 times I have to listen to 'I'm thanking you'... ARRRRGGGHHH!!!

I would get a petty revenge by serving their food with 'You're the sausage and chips so you must be the trout.' She never twigged.
