Sonic Song: Giorgio Sings Drive-In Order, Serenades Worker With Guitar (VIDEO)

Sonic Song Drive In Giorgio

Sometimes fast-food service can prompt rude, impersonal exchanges, but at this Sonic drive-in both customer and employee become involved in a friendly conversation that can only be described as harmonious.

In the video above, YouTube user Giorgio and his friend pull into a Sonic drive-in armed with a plan and a guitar.

When a female employee greets the pair, the musician begins strumming on his guitar.

Caught off guard at first, the worker quickly realizes the men are placing an order through song, and she cheerfully takes down their requests, occasionally asking "Is there any thing else I get for you?"

A question that is ultimately met with a final request that she "just have a wonderful night."

While listening to an occasional serenade from a customer might make the workday a bit brighter, writing a song about how much you hate your employer probably isn't the best idea. Just ask one former Starbucks barista.

Christopher Cristwell took to YouTube in nothing but his underwear and a green apron to rant about serving customers at a California Starbucks location.

Although the tune, titled "The Starbucks Rant Song," was supposed to be a joke, the mega coffee chain didn't find it funny and fired Cristwell shortly after the video began gaining steam on the Internet.

After being in this business for almost thirty years starting as a carhop now as an owner I can honestly say that I would have enjoyed this . My only problem would have been finding it hard not to sing back.

Seems to be taking a bit too much time in placing his order. Unfortunately, in business, there are time constraints. I realize that in youth, the time for self indulgence and narcisism is at an all time high, but for Pete's sake, couldn't his tune been a little tighter with less pauses?

Let me get something straight here...there are 51 comments and this story has been run all day/nite. This guy did something really sweet and posted it on the Internet...it actually made me smile and laugh a tiny bit and brought a tear to my eye. The exchange between the unseen order taker and this man, with his infectious and beautiful smile, was pretty much magic.

But...if he would have killed three people in the store there would have been a few thousand comments.

The world is just not right.

You are so right my friend! I couldn't think of a nicer,sweeter order from this gentleman. So it took a bit longer, I think it's definitely a day maker for the two involved and everyone else who has enjoyed this encounter. Way to go,Giorgio! And Lucky you, Miss order taker whose name escapes me! Gives me a good feeling that there are nice ones like you out there!

Sonic should use this in their next set of commercials. This dude has a good voice & the young lady taking the order enjoyed I believe as much as the guy singing did. I bet that was a first for her.

I would bet the girl taking the order was inspired the rest of her shift.
That was so good it brought a tear to my eye at the last when he told her to have a wonderful night.
