Di you tip at Sonic Drive-in?

Question

It's fast food usually under eight dollars, so I would say no

But technically they're waiting on you, so I'm confused

Honestly, I'm too embarressed to ask anyone I know.

Answer 1

It doesn't matter the price of the food-it's the service provided. Don't be cheap. Give them a dollar or two. They're on roller skates..they do a good job...they don't spit in your food..

Answer 2

Yes, I give a small tip at Sonic Drive-In.

Answer 3

I used to tip them like a dollar every time, but then had a friend tell me they make the same as the cooks do!  And they don't get tips.  So I don't tip there anymore, unless I'm just feeling really generous that day lol

Answer 4

I have a friend who works there and they do not get as much as a cook and they depend on tips to help them make ends meat but they do not expect you to tip if you use the drive thru. Of course sonic is a franchise and it is the owners discreation as to how much they pay the waitresses.

Answer 5

Yes, they make very little money. The majority of their earnings are supposed to come from tips.

Answer 6

I always tip sometimes you never no they  might need that little change for some gas to get work or some diapers or milk for there baby and that helps out a lot especially since they have to wait on a pay check they're already getting payed minimum wage witch y'all know that these days in time cant got to far so me personally I always tip and you should to tip something it don't have to be a lot

Answer 7

I honestly don't. Some may consider it to be rude. But I don't see the sense in tipping them. Although I also sadly admit that I like the new credit/debit card feature so you don't have to do the akward limbo of tipping them.

Answer 8

Me either i dont tip!

Answer 9

sometimes...a few cents here and there

Answer 10

To quote Mr. Pink from the movie Reservoir Dogs:

Nice Guy Eddie: C'mon, throw in a buck!

Mr. Pink: Uh-uh, I don't tip.

Nice Guy Eddie: You don't tip?

Mr. Pink: Nah, I don't believe in it.

Nice Guy Eddie: You don't believe in tipping?

Mr. Blue: You know what these chicks make? They make $h*t.

Mr. Pink: Don't give me that. She don't make enough money that she can quit.

Nice Guy Eddie: I don't even know a f-n j who'd have the ba115 to say that. Let me get this straight: you don't ever tip?

Mr. Pink: I don't tip because society says I have to. All right, if someone deserves a tip, if they really put forth an effort, I'll give them something a little something extra. But this tipping automatically, it's for the birds. As far as I'm concerned, they're just doing their job.

Mr. Blue: Hey, our girl was nice.

Mr. Pink: She was okay. She wasn't anything special.

Mr. Blue: What's special? Take you in the back and s*** your ****?

Nice Guy Eddie: I'd go over twelve percent for that.

Answer 11

I do.

Answer 12

I usually give them a dollar or two. Not as much as a restaurant server since they do make more than 2.13 an hour but generally they are friendly and bring your food/beverages out to you in a friendly, fast-paced manner. So gratuity is always accepted.
