Regarding carrying aspirin around. No, I don’t. If I get a headache, I put up with it, or find a store and buy some. The idea of asking a total stranger for an aspirin just seems strange. It is as though he did this knowing what the answer would be, so he could raise a fuss. So, if I was as prone to headaches as this guy seems to be, to have to ask for aspirins in restaurants, then yes, I would carry my own supply, rather than being like Blanche Dubois, and relying on the kindness of strangers. Just my 2 cents.

Sorry, I’ve a question.

What industry has caused such a TOTAL panic amongst the service industry?

The resturants liability is a whole lot less for a prepackaged pill than it is for the undercooked chicken aint it?

Or the Sh-t salad, meaning e-coli laced type?

But then again, we talking about lawyers here right?

It just seems so artificial and made up to me. Who asks for medicine in a restaurant. I mean jeez, how about a little personal responsibility???Or is it a fashion issue that this clown can’t carry a bottle of aspirin. To address his premise, of course these places are afraid to get sued, we have allowed legislation and case law to run amok.
