dude, so true... i would personally never sue because of some shit where i was sick for a couple days, or i had a minor injury... if something like that happened, i would simply ask for my money back, an apology, and i probably wouldn't go there anymore. all that money has to come out of sombody's pocket, even if it IS some rich bastard. i WOULD however, try to sue if i was permanately disabled, or couldn't work anymore, etc. but sueing a rich company like mcdonalds because "my coffee was too hot" or "ow, i scratched my arm on your sharp countertop" is plain retarded. sure, you may get some serious cash, but nobody would look at you the same and nobody would respect you. finding glass in a burrito IS pretty messed up, and if he seriously was ill/ injured, maybe sue for damages, time missed at work, and maybe a LITTLE on the side (aka. not millions), but if he's going to be ok and its just an inconvenience, don't do the douche thing.
