I think my dislike of thank you notes came from the default of them: Oh, we collected gifts at :insert event here:, time to note down who got us what, write a form letter to each person, and say thanks!
I'd be much more willing to send a thank you note if it was a one-off, aka, it was meaningful: I've literally written nice letters to support agents I've talked to because they helped me through a particularly hard problem, and I hope it makes it to their manager.
I'm trying to send more thank you notes. I think the key to motivating myself to write them is nice cards, nice pens, and other flourishes, like the sealing wax my partner gave me over the holidays. Otherwise I just, like, send them a text or mention it next time I see them.
