Can I sue olive garden for breaking my microwave?
I got bread sticks to go. the outside of the bag had no appearance that metal would be inside. So i reheated them late at night and boom my microwave went bye bye in sparks.
I bet they would settle if you got a lawyer who agreed to take the case
>>8665728
you just put the bag in the microwave without checking what was inside?
>>8665728
> how do I blame someone else for my incompetence
OP, your problems are of your own making
>>8665750
yes it was folded tight when i got it, and the outside showed no indication the inside would have metal

You must not be American friend, best leave this one to the experts
>>8665777
well you're simply a retard. have you never gotten food to go before? 9/10 it comes in those aluminum bowls. you don't deserve those trips.
he doesn't drink soda?!
Did you notice on the outside of the bag there's a big "DO NOT PLACE IN MICROWAVE" text on there?
It's only in giant letters in a high contrast font, so I forgive if you if you're stupid

Friendo, I'm as American as a bald eagle clutching a fresh apple pie.
But that doesn't matter, because you're still a moron for chucking something in the microwave without checking it first.
>>8665728
depends, are you from idaho? then your chances are good.
>>8665728
You could, but it'd cost you several thousand in lawyer's and court fees. Then the judge would likely dismiss the suit as frivolous anyway. There is a possibility that Olive Garden would counter-sue you and you'd be out even more money. You don't have a good reason to sue the restaurant here. This is 100% your fault.
Why don't you just contact the restaurant and tell them what happened? Best case scenario, they give you a voucher for a free meal.

probably the best advice itt

Yeah but how are you supposed to see that in the dark when you microwave breadsticks at 4 AM? This is grossly negligent on Olive Garden's part, there should really be LEDs on the bag
You sound like the kind of person to put a coffee maker in the bathroom then tries to sue the coffee maker company when it ends up burning down your house

9/10 lawsuits against corporations come from frivolous law suits where they didn't assume that there are brain dead morons in the population.
OP could get a settlement. It won't be big but if he gets a lawyer they'll give him something to go away.

>apple pie isn't American
>>8666759
Ok, say he does this. How much is it going to cost to have a lawyer write a letter or two to them? A few hundred dollars at least I'm thinking. Then the only option is to try >>8665936 which isn't going to work. How much does a microwave cost? $100? A wise man would realize he fucked up by putting a foil-lined bag in the microwave and move on with life.
>>8667045
A wise man would have looked inside the bag first.
OP is a stupid nigger, you're supposed to put those bags in an oven.
is getting a new microwave actually a big deal?
around here microwaves are like old crt televisions, either you or someone you know has like 3 old ones sitting in their garage or you pick one up off craigslist for like 5$ if not free
>>8665728
I'm pretty sure it says do not microwave right on the bag. It does.

>is getting a new microwave actually a big deal?
Nope
>either you or someone you know has like 3 old ones sitting in their garage or you pick one up off craigslist for like 5$ if not free
Those probably suck though.
>>8665777
Why would you not have at least opened the bag to vent the steam while cooking?
>>8665728
Why the fuck would you microwave a bag even if it didn't have metal in it you stupid donkey?
