How does Double Sonic Smasher only have 40 more calories than the quarter pound double?

Double sonic smasher has bigger patties, bigger bun, and extra sauce. How is it almost the same calories?

(600 vs 560)

New cool at sonic training is… wow

On my fourth day I still feel a bit lost trying to remember it all I know a bit about the pretzel twist and finally got the sizes down for the poppers and mozzarella sticks. I did not know you had to be very great at multitasking. I’m trying to improve my speed while also not messing it. Sonic menu has so much compared to McDonald’s. Originally that was my only fast food job. Which was easy I don’t know why I’m having a tougher time at sonic. Hopefully I get it all down

Phone at home, kid at store

So I use the app order dinner. My kid goes to pick it up and.let's me know what spot they are in. Th e App REFUSES to let me enter the spot because my phone is at home with me.

What is the logic? I should be able to enter the spot number. Who would pay for the food to be delivered to some rano parked in a spot at the store?

Fail.

No flavor slush in app?

Is there a way to get a slush with no flavor in the app? I like that the drinks are always half priced and I do not have to go during happy hour (I only want it at night). If so please let me know, and if not oh well.

SMASH BURGER

It may or may not have been mentioned in the sub comma, but the Smashburger is the best thing at Sonic. Prior to it their burgers had gotten to the point that I just didn’t even order them anymore.

Will I get more hours?

I started training about a week ago first watching videos and taking the tests then I actually started in the kitchen on Wednesday doing burgers from 5-9 then today I came in again from 4-7 doing hotdogs and tots and learning about taking out the trash/grease and today my manager had me download the schedule app and the only day it shows is tomorrow from 5-9 so I was wondering if when I'm done with training I'll have a official schedule or it'll be like this until I show I'm good enough without supervision because I feel like I'm good minus a few errors

Strawberry shortcake/ red white and blue slush???

I know these were both seasonal slush floats, but does anyone know how I could order something similar? I miss them so much and I tried finding a way to order them on the app but I couldn’t figure anything out. If I order in the drive thru does anyone know how I could ask for something similar to these?

Breakfast - Temporarily Unavailable

Does anyone know why my Sonic app is showing every breakfast item as Temporarily Unavailable? This is for any location I choose, regardless of distance.

Unpaid Totzones (training)

My fiancé was written up for not doing her virtual training modules. She's been asked to do them at home unpaid and she refuses so the result is write up.

Who can she contact about this? It's absurd and probably illegal. Thanks in advance for any help

Cream slushes are back, but only in small?

There are two small cream slushes on the $1.99 menu, but not regular sized ones? These are the only thing I ever went to Sonic for, I've been so sad for so long :,(

Did I clock out the wrong way?

I just clocked out earlier at 9:00 and this was my training day and I was in the kitchen and my manager told me I was able to clock out and when I did I pressed the "Clock in/Clock out" button then pressed the code we were given which is 0 then I got a thing that said "Is this correct?" with "$0.00" on the bottom of the wording and it had yes or no but I clicked yes I'm confused on if I was supposed to say no then put "40.00" because I get paid $10 a hr as a cook and also because I was at training for 4hrs and my manager showed me how to clock in and out yesterday but I forgot the last part and this is my first job as a 16yr old so I'm confused

If a customers card isn't working and they don't have another form of payment, what do you do?

Was curious what your protocol is.

Let them keep the items regardless of the price? Take the items back? Take a photo of their id and just let them keep it hoping they'll come back?

Need help

Trying to change my email. App says you can't change it and have to create an new account. No problem. I deleted my account and created a new one using my different email but my same phone number. When I send it through, the app says this phone number is already associated with another account. So I log back into my old account and change the phone number and delete again. Same error message when creating the new account again. What else can I do?

Calling sonic about applcation

I tried to call sonic a few hours ago and found out they don't even have a number to call. What should I do? I'm going to prob end up going their tomrrow should I just ask while getting my food I feel like that's a horrible time to ask about a job application. Suggestions would be great! (Also might have already made a post about this but I have no idea how to check)

Over 20 years with the Sonic brand- AMA

Worked as a carhop all the way up to regional operations and I’m still with the brand today. I’m a pretty active user in this sub and enjoy answering questions. What would you like to know about Sonic?

My local Sonic sucks, why?

Does anyone here work at either of the two Ardmore, Oklahoma Sonic locations?

Why does the Dr. pepper suck now?

Also the hot dogs tastes different than the one down in Marietta which might be worth the 45 minute drive.

Need help changing position

I need help changing my position because I originally applied for a carhop and after a month of waiting because I wasn't 16 yet ( I turned 16 October 2nd but applied on September 21st and was told to wait till after my birthday) Today I was supposed to get my training but since I haven't filled out the papers yet I have to come back on Wednesday and while being informed about that the manager asked me if I would rather work cook and I stupidly said yes and now I'm in a dilemma because I plan on calling tomorrow to change my position to what it originally was but I'm having trouble and nervous on to say😂🤦🏾‍♂️

Because I prefer working carhop because I'm a little anxious around new people since this will be my first job and I would assume as carhop I wouldn't have to be as social but then again as a cook I can also have a better work experience what should I do?

Little plastic animals

When I was a kid, Sonic would give you a little plastic animal (giraffe, elephant, monkey, etc) that hung on the edge of the lid on ice cream and frozen drinks. I assume they stopped because kids would swallow them. I miss those, and also the Twist cups (swirled vanilla and chocolate soft serve).
