They wouldn’t buy the coffee unless it was that hot.

“We no longer serve hot coffee via the drive thru windows.”

“last year” hummm... I guess he needed five months of in home Keurig testing to make sure he didn’t roast his nuts before setting up his scam.

They need to try this at Starbucks. They need the advertisement.

Any footage from the store ? I would think the drive through window would have a camera aimed at it.

Jackie Chiles Attorney at Law:

“Did you put the top on ?”

Kramer: “No, they put the top on”

“You didn’t put the top on. They put the top on. You didn’t make the top, they made the top”

“Is that going to be a problem?”

“Ya damn right it’s going to be a problem. A problem for THEM”

I hope he wins a good settlement. I warned the local Dunkin that their coffee was scalding hot. They said it is corporate policy to serve it that hot. 40 years ago their coffee was great.

Well I’d need to know the details. If the employee didn’t secure the lid properly and spilled it on him then it is their fault.

If the guy dropped it in his lap it’s his fault. If I go to a gun range and the range master lets people run in a shoot ganster style and rolling all over the place behind my back...and they shoot me in the leg. I’d sue the gun range.

I don’t know what to make of this without first knowing the company policy on blm. If they are pro or funders, I’m okay with a hefty award to the aggrieved party, regardless of his race, however he identifies.

The issue isn’t that the coffee is hot...it’s that the cup wasn’t secured properly and served to him in a safe manner.

In the movie Quest For Fire, there was a remedy for burns to a specific part of the male body.

If my memory serves me right...

The last time it happened ( MacDonald’s ), the victim, a woman, was awarded nearly $3 million by the jury in her lawsuit. That was in 1994.
