Went to the Sonic in CS on Texas today for a drink. Total was $1.71. Gave the man $5.71 and he gave me back $3. My fault for not checking my change at the time, I know. However, it bugged me that he shorted me a dollar!

That's why I always go through the drive thru. I have had to put up with this **** too many times and I for one am putting my foot down.

Should you tip if your server has Tourettes?

Also, did you go during happy hour, because that would be the frugal thing to do?

hey houston98 is it possible that they recognize what a d-bag you are and thats why they get your order wrong?

I tip someone who waits on me and takes my order, I don't tip the person that walks 10ft and just brings me my food.

Obviously not but the thread has turned very GBish.

BTW-sometimes I tip, sometimes I don't. Depends on the weather and the service - not on body parts.

I tip depending on the service, however, keeping my money without me telling you too is theft.

Prolly regurg'd from a previous post on a GB Sonic thread, but pretty damn funny.

Until they refill my drink, and clean the trash out of my car when I am done eating, I see absolutely no reason to tip at Sonic.

Tipping at Sonic? What do they do to get a tip? They don't refill your chips, your drinks or anthing else.

If you tip at Sonic, do you also tip at McDonalds or Whataburger when they bring the food to you at your table?

hippie - I can always hope can't I. BTW and hoping to hijack the thread did you ever try the bare minerals makeup? I did and I really like it.

Sonic doesn't expect you to tip the carhops. If they did, the credit card receipts would have a tip blank. They don't.

The Sonic on Texas by Wal-Mart is by far the worst in the area. Never get the orders right and are down right rude.

I quit going there six months ago

no tip from me either. And yes, the one by CS walmart stinks. I went there to get slushies for the kids, and they were out of slushie ice....wtf??

Quantum ace- My son has Tourette's- that's not funny

Second- Are Sonic employees paid at tip wage or minimum wage?

I go through the drive-thru because I constantly have to check my order to see if it's right (it is much quicker to have them fix it if you are right there watching them)


Wal- Mart CS Sonic does a fair job
Wellborn Sonic is either on their game or they aren't... no middle ground there....

That's all...

Sometimes I tip.

But I dont feel obligated to tip anyone who is making a full wage.

Don't get me wrong I tip at restaurants I just didn't think Sonic was tip worthy, especially when you go through the drive through like any other fast food place. I guess it just boils down to whether or not they make full wage, which I have no idea if they do or not.
