I'm such a dumbass. Had a meeting in the office yesterday at 10. We all went around introducing ourselves. I tell them who I am, my role and background. Guy says "Nice to meet you!" and I said "Thank you!! 😄" realising after three minutes, I cringed so hard after that. To be fair I hadn't had my coffee nor my breakfast but still embarassing 😭😭😂

No, you owned that.

Onus was on him to say "you're welcome".

I’ve said ‘thanks, you too’ before, when a waiter has said ‘enjoy your meal’, so you’re not alone
