Man sues Mcdonalds because hes fat


This article is about a man in Brazil that is suing McDonalds for being fat. But no not what you might think. He is suing as a former employee, manager to be exact. He states that he felt that he needed to taste the food from time to time because there are “mystery customers” that would come in and audit their food.  Supposedly the man had gained 65 pounds during his dozen years that he worked for McDonalds. The judge in the case ordered that McDonalds has to pay the man 17,500 dollars.
First off this is hilarious. A fat man blaming the place that he got the food for being fat. I am bigger than I would like to be but I know whose fault that is, its sure not McDonalds any other fast food place that I may have eaten at in the last few years.  If a person is obese then it is that person alones fault. Baring any unseen problems like an over active thyroid if your fat its because you eat too much and don’t get up enough to work it off. It is a simple as this, if you take in more calories than you burn off then you will store fat.  Your body is designed this way and that is what will happen whether you like it or not.
As far s the guy suing McDonalds I hope they counter sue just to keep this guy from getting a dime. I am about sick of seeing lazy people wanting to make money off of suing someone. There is a place for suing but because you don’t know how to put down the supersized fries you shouldn’t be rewarded.  I wish that we could find a way to keep these stupid suits out of the courts so that our tax payer dollars don’t get wasted on a judge listening to someone blaming someone else for all their problems. And yes I know this happened in Brazil but it happens here everyday too.
