            only in America could someone have the right to call an employer to task for discrimination based on appearance?

            or

            only in America could someone think that a job at a burger joint was worth suing over?

                Joseph Connor claimed in his lawsuit that the fast-food chain violated the Americans with Disabilities Act and state employment law. He demanded $300,000 for financial loss and severe emotional trauma, along with a job at McDonald's.

                    Sometimes it´s easy to get the idea that you can sue anyone for anything in America... this is one of those times.

                    Actually, makes me wanna sue someone for some stupid reason... and retire at age 22!
                    work hard. play hard.

                        That is funny as hell. $300 000 at McDonalds for $6.75 / hr ... that is like 21 straight years of work BEFORE taxes.

                        LMAO

                            RIDGEPORT, Connecticut (AP) -- McDonald's has settled a lawsuit filed by a 420-pound man who claimed he was denied a job because of his weight.

                            Often times I wonder why
                            There's love and hate, theres live or die.
                            When sickness comes I must decide:
                            When feelings go, theres suicide.

                              no offense to anyone who's 'big', but if i saw some 400 lbs man in the kitchen flipping burgers i would turn around & walk out.
                              the revolution is coming.
