If I was to move to Germany, I'd learn German!
If I was to move to France, I'd learn French! If I was to move to Japan, I'd learn Japanese! If I was to move anywhere I'd learn the language out of respect and ease of communication. After working construction for the last 16 years and many, many times being the only American on the job and having to listen to Spanish all day long everyday, it gets annoying! Having to push 1 for English on the phone gets annoying! Having to push "here" for English on all the ATM's gets annoying! All the other people from all the other countries who have migrated here, most have learned the language. And yes, if I moved to Mexico, I'd learn Spanish! But I shouldn't have to learn Spanish here just so I can communicate on the job! Last edited by Dantheman62; 06-15-2009 at 02:06 AM. |
