I work with a guy who has been in the country ILLEGALLY for 13 years now AND still does not speak a word of English, it makes me CRAZY that everyone at work panders to him by speaking Spanish to him I don’t speak Spanish so I can’t even communicate with my coworker!! I work in a MAJOR grocery chain in the bakery and produce departments, I live in CA. so of course he is protected AND he is taking a great UNION American job with GREAT benefits!!!
Good for you that you didn’t pander to him and speak Spanish. Are you sure he can’t speak our language?
One day I was at the police department filling out some forms. In the next room was an Asian guy and his friends. He had apparently assaulted his girlfriend and was being charged. When the police were in asking him questions he never answered any questions and his friends claimed he didn’t speak English. When the police weren’t in the room he spoke perfect English. These illegals understand much of the language spoken around them.
