Who here leaves tips in the drive-thru?

Like if I go get coffee, nowadays they've got a tip bucket hanging from the window.

Are they really expecting a tip for giving me my coffee at the window? Should I leave one?

Should McDonalds and other places start putting tip buckets outside their windows as well? I guess McDonald's does it, now that I think about it, but it all goes to the Ronald McDonald's house.

Leaving a tip at a fast-food/coffee drive-up window is not a trend I want to support but I may be able to be peer-pressured into it.

1. I don't at the drive thru. Would you tip if you went inside and ordered it take out?

2. Do you tip at the counter when you go to Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts??

(It's a trick question. If you say yes, I'm going to give you crap for thinking there is any difference other than that you didn't have to get out of the car. If you say no, I'm going to give you crap because baristi are terribly underpaid for the amount of skill and training the job actually requires.)
