If that is true, then the other poster is right that they pay below minimum wage.

I definitely made $5 and change in 2006. Averaged about $20 in tips per night.

I don't either. If I have it, I obviously tip. But I don't avoid the place due to not having $1. If they expected their carhops to rely so heavily on tips, they'd let you tip on the card.

Fun fact: When I worked there, they didn't have card machines on the signs yet; we had to run the cards inside. And they could tip on the card--and lots of people did.

If they had a touch-screen with an option to tip outside I would tip every time. If they are going to make it impossible to tip without having a few small bills on me, then I'm not going to tip if I don't have a few small bills on me.
