I'm sure that when you got thanks or credit for doing a job, you appreciated it. It doesn't do any harm to thank people for a job well done - particularly when that job was more hassle than the normal job.

If you'd managed to pull in a particularly big client and it had taken twice as long as usual to get them to sign on the dotted line, plus they'd wanted delivery in three days - but you got the deal signed and sealed with the order delivered on time. Wouldn't you like your boss or the company you were dealing with to appreciate the work you'd done.

Yes, everyone gets hassle all the time but it's still nice to show appreciation when things go right.
