Question

Does it annoy you when customers order in Spanish to Latino fast food clerks when they can speak English?

Answer 1

NO .

SINCE WHEN DO AMERICANS SPEAK ENGLISH?   LOL

Answer 2

yes.

Answer 3

yes!

Answer 4

Why would that annoy me? It's their right to order how they like. In reference to the person who mentioned being annoyed by subtitles in Spanish, what about the main subtitle which is in English. I use the English subtitles all the time to understand a movie better. Some movies have French or German and Japanese. This is a global market. It is naive to think that everything is for English speakers only. America is only one market in this world. Time to grow up.

Answer 5

No, not everyone only knows spanish but other languages as well..there have ben plenty of times when ppl talk in other languages and i sure as h**l cant understand it but i am not going to b*tch about it.. and to the person that said that latinos are taking americans jobs since when have you seen americans work in the fields... next time you go out and buy some grapes or apples at the grocery think a little.. grow up!!!

Answer 6

Not nearly as much as it annoys me that everything I buy has a subtitle in Spanish. Everything is pandering to the people who don't care to learn English. What's next? Do I need to learn Arabic before I call a cab?

Answer 7

Yes, all the time. It's outrageous especially when you understand a little & it seems that they do talk about u. They do it on purpose just to get to u.

Answer 8

I think it's rude. What's the point? Is what they're saying top secret to the English-speaking customers? Oh well, to each his own.

Answer 9

No. If that's what it takes to get my order correct, then I'll speak in Spanish (or in Cantonese at a Chinese restaurant).

If I really cared that much about workers who won't speak English, then I wouldn't be eating there at all.

Is it worth making a stink about? Maybe, maybe not. But I'm still d**n hungry and I want my food.

Answer 10

It annoys me whenever I go into a fast-food restaurant and can't order in English because everyone behind the counter is an illegal immigrant, making below minimum wage, and taking away American jobs.

Answer 11

Well do they KNOW English? I just went to McDonald with my father and he is Spanish who speaks English well. The clerk barely understood him,and  even I understood him. It's also easier to speak Spanish to a Latino clerk cuz'  they understand better.

It doesn't annoy me, and I'm not biased because I'm spanish.

If a Japanese person wants to speak to a Japanese clerk  in Japanese instead of English then its okay, they'll feel comfortable that way.

Answer 12

No. What annoys me is this guy came up and started trying to speak what sounded like Japanese to me. I speak English, I couldn't understand one word he said so I was not able to help him.

If you're going to move to our country, learn to speak our language.
