all their signs are in spanish and english. They lost my business forever, well, they never had it.

You do not want to visit Ca.

PS Thanks to your daughter and congratulations to you. You must be proud!

I have no problem with companies putting up signs in other languages if it allows them to reach a certain market (that's capitalism after all). Its when they don't have ANY English speaking staff that I get upset and even in those rare cases, I simply move on to the next store.

The whole language issue is a tempest in a teapot. Every second generation Mexican/Colombian/Chinese/Arab, etc. that I have met speaks English. Its just that we have such a huge amount of first generation people in this country now.
