Manager Takes Carhop Cash Over Sales and Understaffed Fountain Side

I have worked for This Sonic since October. When I first started they had in effect a policy that stated if your carhop wallet was over then it belonged to them. I have been making tips for a living for 18 years and I know that in this state that this policy is illegal. Any monies over the sales is considered Tip wages and belongs to the employee. It happened a couple of times and the manager would just take your wallet then tell you how much short you were. I contacted the Department of labor to confirm that it was illegal. I questioned the manager and was told it was Sonic policy. I questioned how they could account for the extra money and they looked at me like I was crazy.

At our store they would schedule as few people on the fountain side so they could lower their labor. They would expect the carhops who are paid $2.13 an hour to answer speaker, make drinks, and bag their food. Wonder why all their food was late???

The only people who got breaks at our sonic were the people who just clocked in to get a pay check. They did no work and gave away about $100.00 worth of food each night. Our managers are nothing more than babysitters. They just stand in the store and make sure it doesn't burn down. It is a joke. If only corporate knew how many violations they have in that store.
