A tip is supposed to be a reward for a job well done. It is not mandatory.

If people feel the Sonic girls are doing a good job, then by all means, tip them, even if they are only just bringing your order car. By the same token, if the girl who's a waitress at real restaurant is doing a lousy job, you don't have to tip her. If she's not making enough money waitressing, she should improve her performance or she should find another area of employment.

A tip is based on service, no matter what the service is.
