Ok, so I just saw a commercial for a lawyers office for some illness. If you have been diagnosed with this illness to contact the law office and they will....What!? Sue the company you worked for? Get you a lot of money for your pain and suffering? What is all of that about? Honestly, do you think a company would knowingly hire a person for their company with the thought of "Oh yeah, this guy looks like an idiot, lets just see if he'll work for us even though that we know that 20 years from now he will have cancer from working for us. What is that?

This world is just too sue happy. What about the person who said I burnt my lip on a pickle, I am going to sue the people who made the burger so hot. Why not go further? Why don't you sue the company that sliced the pickle so thin that it made it hot enough to burn you? Or better yet, why don't you sue the farmer that grew the pickle that the company sliced so thin. Awe hell, lets go way out there. Lets sue the company that produced the seeds, that the farmer planted, and the company sliced to put on the burger that got it so hot to burn you.

Back to the company. Ok, my daddy was a firefighter. He went into that job knowing full good and well the risks of being a fire fighter. Ofcorse you have the oldy but goody, Play with fire and you're going to get burned. And trust me, my daddy has had his share, but do you think that he went back and sued the fire department for every burn he ever got? What about the time he went out to fight a fire on his birthday? Should he have tried to sue the man that owned the building that caught on fire for ruining his birthday?

Come on people....!!!! Life is way too short. Get on with it and stop being so money hungry that you are going to spend 1/8th of your life in a court room for more money that someone else doesn't have just because you burnt yourself. Learn from it. I bet that person never gets pickles on their burger from that place next time...do they?
