I’ll tip for full table service and deliveries. I do not tip for counter service, and I do not tip food runners.
I used to go to Sonic every couple months or so; now that I know they are expecting tips, I will not.
One of the many reasons I don’t go to starbucks is the tipping.
When you have to pay upwards of five bucks for a cup of coffee, I always figured the tip was included.
But then it’s been many years since I set foot in a Starsucks, so what do I know.
I used to tip the carhops at Sonic a flat $1.00, not a percentage as I do for table service. Now I have quit going to Sonic at all, after they screwed up my order one too many times.
