Um, that's a reasonable mistake.

You could have gotten home and found out that they gave you nachoes with extra "sour cream" instead.

When I go to El Pollo Loco, I order my burrito without Sour Cream or Guac... and they have about an 80-85% success rate with that.

You should sell the burritos online.

I find that the mistakes made on my fast food orders usually stem from a language barrier that shouldn't be there.

You should learn how to speak "high-school dropout".

Why? The first wave of people that came here didn't bother to learn any of the various Native American languages. It's not like we have an official language here. English is the defacto standard right now for most of the country, but to assume that all immigrants (or citizens for that matter) should have to learn it is bigoted. Plenty of people get by just fine living in places where English isn't the most popular language.

What I think you meant to say is "People that get a job dealing with predominantly English speaking people should know English themselves as it's part of the job requirement."

People already in this country need to learn to speak english. If I hear one more person say any of the following, I'm getting all stabby:

- Anyways
- Down the road a ways
- Alls
- Who all/what all

Hearing John Madden trying to make a sentence could have the same effect.

Scotts right. I really could care less if anyone learns english. But if yout going to hire someone that is going to be dealing with other human beings... make sure they know the language.

BTW the woman who took my order was white and in her 30s.


I would cut off your head if it stood but a foot higher from the ground.

People who want to demand that immigrants speak English should be required to immediately take a 12th grade-level spelling, grammar and writing exam. Closed book, open-ended answer, no T-F or multiple choice.

I once had someone say to me "I don't need to take no test, I already speak English good."

I'm pretty sure that being a US citizen is also a job requirement. YES I ASSUME THAT MOST LATINO LOOKING PEOPLE WORKING THE LOWEST PAYING JOBS ARE ILLEGAL. However, I don't treat them differently, I don't speak down to them, I treat them with the respect they deserve as a human being. But I silently think that there is a large chance they aren't citizens of the US.

Hell, if I ran into a janitor at Wal-Mart in the middle of the night and he spoke Russian to me I'd assume he's illegal. Sure, a lot of those people I make judgements against are probably citizens because they were born here from illegal immigrant parents, but as far as I'm concerned, we need an amendment for that.
