Suit suit
A lawsuit on a suit!
Meanings of the word "suit" ...
1) a set of clothing, armor, or the like, intended for wear together.
2) the act of making a petition or an appeal.
So here is the Suit suit story involving a customer and dry cleaner.
- Customer, a lawer by himself, sued the dry cleaner for not giving back his pants.
- Dry cleaner says, customer had forgotten which color/what type/etc of the pants he had given and defends that customer is asking for wrong pants!
Customer - immigrant from one of the Asian countries, is a lawyer. He thought he could sue and make a million bucks. Other lawyers had noticed his behaviour during his divorce case couple of years ago, which was indifferent.
This customer, also filed saying, "am not satisfied" referring to the display, "Satisfaction Guaranteed" which was in the dry cleaner store!
Court said - You will not be given a single penny! The "not satisfied" clause does not mean what he thought - it just means, "guaranteed within a certain limit". After this, customer tells the court to get him compensation for all the stress and hours of tension during this case. He had spent 1400 hours and around $100,000 on this case. He couldn't afford it easily and at one point of time, had planned to go back to his home country. Seeing all these, court said, "one should be within limits while filing a case like this. One who couldn't afford home and shelter should have first focussed on job/business and not stressed himself on trivial things". Incidently, at one point, customer was offered $12,000 and his pants by the dry cleaner which the customer refused to take!
