"So far, here in Arizona, we have not had to deal with one person who had trouble with English."
Come to Texas... I walked in to a Wal Mart store I had shopped at previously here in Houston and ALL, I mean ALL, the signs were is Spanish. Not English AND Spanish mind you they were ALL in Spanish. The announcements were also in Spanish. I was buying a bunch of stuff and was just about finished. I wanted some bottled water and I couldn't find it. So I stopped an Employee and asked where it was and she looked at me and it was then I realized she didnt understand a word I said. I know Spanish but I wasn't about to speak it. Took my basket up front asked to speak to the day manager. When they came up I pushed my basket up to them, told him what happened and told him that until English was the language spoken in this store that niether I or anyone else I knew would be back to shop there.
