So McDonald’s has recently introduced mobile ordering where you decide what you want and then park in a special spot and they bring the order out to your car, skipping the drivethru. So should you tip the person who brings it to your car?

No, because you don’t have to tip every single person who brings you stuff as part of their job.
I agree. McDonald’s employees get a minimum wage and aren’t dependent on tipping. It’s part of their duties, so no, you shouldn’t tip them.
In fact, they do this routinely if someone has a large order and they’ll “park” them while it’s being assembled.
Do you pay through the app? If so, I wouldn’t tip. If not, and my bill was $7, I’d hand over a ten and say keep the change, just to avoid the person running back and forth.
At Sonic Drive-Ins, it’s customary to tip the carhops.
My rule on tipping, outside of restaurants (where it really is kinda mandatory):
If you feel as though the value of what you received is greater than what you are charged, then leaving a tip is always appreciated.
No no no…I 've never gotten good service at mickey-ds…I seriously hate that place…Our local one (sorta)…is extremely bad, I think…I’ve been to cleaner and nicer ones but…it makes no difference…they are just going through the motions, it seems!
At Sonic, it’s customary to slip into sodium induced comas.
I probably wouldn’t. But I’ll say this: it makes a lot more sense to tip a McD’s worker who actually brings food out to you (you know, like a server) than it does to tip people at all those places like Subway and Starbucks, etc., who just prepare your order and hand it to you–and yet always seem to have a jar for tips.:smack:
Tips for* what?*
Even if I was inclined to do it, I’d be worried about getting the person fired.
