Cheap a$$ho!es that don't tip a measly $5 for takeout orders. Maybe you can't afford to eat out and need to eat at home. [/quote]

Do you tip at McDonalds, Starbucks, Panera Bread, Burger King, Corner Bakery and other take out locations?[/quote]

Yes,  without hesitation.[/quote]

McDonald’s employees aren’t allowed to accept tips.[/quote]

This is not true. It's actually illegal for an employer to prevent a worker from receiving a tip offered by a customer, though the employer can create a tip pool to ensure that tips are shared over the course of a shift. But I've tipped people at McDonalds drive through many times and, yes, they accept them and the restaurant cannot take them away. Once I was going through a drive through on a holiday and gave a really big tip because I wanted to thank them for being open and working on a day when really no one should have to, and the big grin I got from the women at the window was so genuine.

I worked in fast food in high school and used to sometimes get tipped at the drive through window and I never forgot how good it made me feel. Tipping people who work at places like McDonalds is extra rewarding to me because those jobs don't come with much social status and I want those folks to know that I see them and appreciate them.
