My former owner sometimes said please and thank you, and sometimes didn't. Whether he did or not did not affect my eagerness to obey his command or to please. Sometimes he was in a please/thank you kind of mood, sometimes he wasn't. I was always in an obedient and pleasing kind of mood. The man I'm currently seeing has a much different way of conducting and expressing himself. Requests are often stated as preferences - "I prefer that you go to bed early tonight." He is not my owner or my Master and does not have complete authority over me. But I find myself wanting to do his will more and more, and I believe no matter how he presented a request/instruction/command, I would be jumping to get it done. Other ways of stating his desires are along the lines of, "I want you to go to bed early tonight", or, "Get to bed early tonight, my dear." There is always a gentle tone about him, and this makes me feel cared about in a way that is new to me. Then again if he were to bark out, "Get your ass to bed" well bang-zoom I'd be in bed. [;)]
