I ask because I deal with several immigrants in my work situation. I'm not being a bigot, I'm trying to communicate with these people, and make them understand what needs to be done.
I'm dealing with people from Bosnia, Pakistan, Iran, Cuba, India, and Mexico. How many damn languages should I be required to learn in my own country to get my job done without being a bigot? Honest question!

I had to download a translator app on my phone this morning in order to make the line haul driver from Cuba understand the simple thing that needed to be done this morning. I tried typing it out, and printing it in English because maybe my accent threw him off, but he couldn't read it. He drew me a picture, so I did the app thing out of frustration, and finally got through to him. It is aggravating, at best!

And another thing! How in the HELL does a person get a license to drive an 80,000 lb. vehicle when they can't read, and understand the road signs?
Diversity is great, and all; but how much do we accept?
I want all comers to learn the language that I speak in the country where I live....period!!
If they want to speak their native tongue with people who understand it....GREAT!!

BUT THEY SHOULD LEARN TO COMMUNICATE WITH US. NOT THE OTHER WAY AROUND!!

OK...... (sigh)......rant over.

Are you really trying to communicate with these so-called foreigners? If this is too why not learn their language. You will be all the wiser for it! But No! The racists got to have the cake and how dare you force them to eat it too! Did you know that America wasn't specifically created for white people?

Yes, we are well aware of that. But we were the first ones in any quantity that tried to make America what it became and we white people don't want to see the likes of you slowly tear it apart. The last president tried to do that as much as he could. But we kept voting in more and more state and federal legislators and Governors to let him know that we didn't like the way he was tearing apart America. President Trump is the result of all of the crap we have had to take for at least eight years. We will continue to fight for America, no matter what the race or religion as long as you get on board the train to greatness that was once America and can be again.

Hell, it keeps people from getting jobs. I was told, twice, that I wasn't hired because I wasn't bi lingual. Half of the Government workforce must know or learn Mexican to keep their jobs - but there are few rules going the other direction.

Mexico never stopped the Mexican-American war, they just changed tactics.............and they're winning. Kids can wear stinkymayo T shirts, but not American flags......which sounds like surrender to me.

It doesn't seem all that complicated to me. We are a melting pot of multi national, ethnic and cultural people.........who should be expected to assimilate with those born here, not the other way around. I've always said, if you don't like American traditions or language - go the f&ck back where you came from. That's seems simple, don't it?

I honestly think that a lot of these people use the "language barrier" as a crutch.
The Bosnian that I mentioned in my post is a perfect example.
9 years ago, I trained this man on how to do this job. It was a brutal game of charades with his broken english, and apparent lack of understanding of how things are here. He is still at it, and I know that he knows what's going on, but he claims not to understand sometimes. I know his son, and son in law, who speak very good english, and tell me that he can too.
His English skills are good enough to negotiate the purchase a brand new veehicle every two years, but not good enough to understand why the box he left at point C should have been left at point A. And why, as a contractor, he is required to correct his mistake because he doesn't understand, and can't communicate.

I was a contractor for this company for years, then lost my route. A month later, they begged me to come work for them.
I'm starting over at the bottom of the pile now, but climbing that mountain fast.
I'm one step away from being able to hold these people to the contracts that they have signed. Once there I will write them up for breaches every chance I get until their contracts are terminated, or they do their job. It's a process for me right now.
But the frustration level is high since I have a spoiled rotten terminal manager with no spine who doesn't want to do any work. E mails wear him out! So he says......sorry.....it's just work stuff that pisses me off.

I did text the "manager" earlier, and tell him that I wanted two hours of overtime added to my timecard because of dealing with the emails, and phone calls from home off the clock. He said he would give me four.


This is bullshit. It's a personal problem, and I shouldn't be venting it here.

My apologies.

It really isn't a personal problem, almost everyone who has contact with these presumaly legal immigrants runs into the same crappy work ethic. They play the 'no comprendo' game to a fare thee well because it allows them to do a really bad job and leaves you convinced that they are total morons or you can't communicate worth a tinkers dam. I went to the illegal work shape up, in a nearby town, to hire some day laborers to clean up my yard and dig out a well head. I let one young guy use my garden tractor with a trailor to move the dirt from one area to another. I pointed out where he could dump the dirt and told him under no circumstances to dump over my french drain outlet. He picked that speific place to dump, grinning all the time. I had to pay those fools to dig out my french drain outlet as well.

I had four workers and they kept me busy going from one to the other to prevent them from doing more damage. My hedge clippers were burned out, my weed wackers were destroyed and the jackass on the garden tractor ran it into every tree he could find. They wanted to use my DR Brush Mower and Lawn Boy mower but I flat out refused, I made them pull the weeds out by hand. It would have cost me a couple of grand to replace what they were breaking. At the end of the day they were unhappy that I paid them the agreed on wage, they thought they were entitiled to a generous tip besides the free lunch of Arroz con Pollo I had to buy and the transportation to and from the pickup point.

I had been prepared to tell them to quit several times during the day, because for every thing they accomplished they destroyed something else. Every time I told them not to do what they were doing I got the blank stare and no comprende. I could have accomplished the same work without the destruction in two days or less. At the end of the day I had worked as hard as I would to do the work myself even though I paid them to do it. That cured me of hiring illegal day laborers.

How many languages do you speak ghetto coon?
So, you're telling me that I need to learn multiple languages in order to do my job in my own country where the predominant language is english?
Why don't you go back to Afrika, and tell your kinfolks to learn something other than Swahili.
Maybe those mud hut ubas can master Arabic, Mexican, or even using a toilet!

Sorry it cost you so much. But at least you learned a lesson. And one that you can tell to a lot of other people. Thanks for posting about it.

Show respect to the country you move to by learning the language.
YES it should be required.
Why is it our responsibility to learn a language in order to communicate, when we allow them in,
help them in many ways, and no requirement to learn our language?
Just another vote maybe?

Archie it's a tactic that the progressive liberal demo's and RINO's use to further erode and bring this great country down to third world status .

Any country that has tried Multi-cultureism will never survive !

If I were to go to lets say China you can bet your bottom dollar I would learn their language because I would want to know what was going on around me .
