    California Man Sues McDonald's For $1.5 Million... Over This One Tiny Oversight


    California Man Sues McDonald's For $1.5 Million... Over This One Tiny Oversight











    Webster Lucas is suing McDonald’s for $1.5 million, claiming he is now unable to work because of “undue mental anguish” and “emotional distress.” McDonald’s crime? They only gave him one napkin.



    Lucas filed the lawsuit in Pacoima, California following an exchange with a McDonald’s manager last month. Things apparently got out-of-hand after Lucas complained that he had only received one napkin with his Quarter Pounder. (Oh, the humanity!)


    Mr. Lucas, who is African-American, says the he was racially abused by the manager (who is reportedly of Hispanic descent) when he went back to the counter to ask for more napkins.
    Lucas claims that the manager, named only as “‘Angel,” allegedly mumbled something that sounded like “you people.” Lucas subsequently wrote an email to “Angel’s” manager:
    Good morning, after I received your email I called McDonald’s in Pacoima and spoke with “Angel” who despite the prior misconduct of his, he again was hostile and unreasonable.
    I am unable to work because of the undue mental anguish and the intentional infliction of emotional distress caused by your employee “Angel” who played around when I asked for the proper spelling of his last name…that I still don’t have. Take care.
    While one wonders what mental anguish and emotional distress “Angel” caused Mr. Lucas that would make him unable to work, here’s a word to the wise (assuming you work at a fast food restaurant, that is): When a customer asks for two napkins, give him two napkins for heaven’s sake.
    Although, now that I think about it, don’t all Mickey D’s have those napkin dispensers next to the soft drink machines? Very confusing.

    There should be a penalty for filing ridiculous lawsuits.

    This man should be ground up into burger and served at McDonalds. What a fukktard douchebag. And I am sure everyone in his family knows it too.

    Don't the McD's have extra napkins by the straws.

    if I was the judge I would throw him in jail for a month, fine him and make him pay McDonalds lawyer's cost. Throw the lawyer that take the case in jail also. Unfortunately he probably spends a lot of time behind bars anyways so that isn't a deterrent and he probably is a life long social assistance recipient so that would only be an additional cost to tax payers.

    Kill him is the best solution.

    Black people almost always ask for extra napkins. Then they take them home and put them in their drawer. 100 napkins are about a buck fifty at Wal-mart, if that. It's pretty sad.

    You know what's funny? That was 20 years ago and I heard after the settlement was reached that the woman hardy got anything out of it after paying money she owed.

    Another woman currently has a lawsuit going with McDonalds from being burned by coffee from 2012.

    I think you easily missed the point which drew a logical conclusion between two separate points of data.

    A. Gentleman mentioned in lawsuit is black
    B. Barry got 95% of the black vote

    A=B=C

    C. Guy is a Democrat

    and A=B=C=D

    since black unemployment is near an all time high,

    D. He is doesn't have a job.

    ex·trap·o·late

    to project, extend, or expand (known data or experience) into an area not known or experienced so as to arrive at a usually conjectural knowledge of the unknown area
