    Nobody important, you may have a law suite! MD should have something that will not spill on you!

    You know, they don’t even offer lids for the coffee in my office. Every couple of days or so, I will splash a little on my hand on the way back to my office. (Ever notice the coffee always seems to spill toward your hand, not away from it?)

    Anyway, I just realized that all I have to do is sue our cafeteria vendor and I won’t have to worry about the lack of growth in my 401K!

    I mean really. Starbucks purposely made his tea too hot just so he would get burned and suffer… I just know it!
    Next week he will sue because the tea was too cold..
    come on Goldilocks get over yourself. Did he not THINK to check the lid before picking it up? It’s called common sense, he should try using it sometime.

    I seriously doubt this claims of 3rd Degree Burns from hot tea on your HAND. Maybe your privates. . .

    I totally agree with you. I was just pointing out that there is significant room for improvement in the cups. The ones I get leak no matter how or where you hold them. If I had a problem with being burnt by this leakage I wouldn’t buy the coffee. I accept the horrible danger inherent in my cup of caffiene in the morning.

    Is this customer too LAZY to tighten his own cup top??? [he MUST be Jewish!]
    SO WHAT if he spilled his tea and the top was on loose. He COULD’VE tightened it….DUH…………….
    [Customer might have been hard up for $$$].

    Wait until you hear my next great idea – governmentalize dry cleaning. Those nasty dry cleaners have been losing trousers hither and thither, and creating
    unseemly profits for drycleaning CEO’s.
    Its high time we let government do our dry cleaning and bear the societal costs of drycleaning through our tax structure. It’s not my fault there’s hot sauce on my cargo shorts. That kind of catastrophe could afflict anyone.

    Shirley – tell me what being Jewish has to do with being lazy. What a biggoted, small-minded comment. There is a special place in HE– for people like you.
