Being thankful or Giving thanks

I say 'thank you' many times each day. After a purchase to the cashier. After a server sets my plate of food down. At the end of receiving an order from a customer. Have those words become filler, just something you tack on to end the transaction or situation? Are we really thankful or do we expect the cashier, server and customer to do because they're getting something for it (i.e. paycheck/product).

Struck a nerve with me. Becoming conscious of what I'm really thankful for feels good...really good.

Maybe I'll lay off saying 'thanks' just to say something because it seems like doing that turns down my being consciousness of being thankful.
