well, let's just clear this up.. i used to work at sonic.. carhops make LESS THAN MIN-WAGE.. b/c you're expected to tip.. even if it's just $.36, if you're just like "keep the change" it's ok.. b/c it's so fast paced that it adds up quickly. but yeah, not tipping at sonic is frowned upon.
the best tip i got was $10, but that's b/c the guy felt sorry for me.. my wheels on my skates had gotten oily and started messing up, and i just never stopped, and i spilled his huge drink all over his new truck! it was awesome!:)
the problem for me is that I can count the times I've had decent service at Sonic on one hand. I don't tip for bad service. People also see sonic as fast food, and they typically don't tip for fast food.
