tgibson Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Seems like a dumb thing to put up a sign about. That's just asking for attention...I don't think it's discriminatory to ask your employees to speak english while they are on the job though. That said, anyone who complains about their coffee man speaking Spanish needs to lighten up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest JMT Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 Yonkers....lolthats where people that get married go live cos they cant afford Manhattanhuh? does your salary go down once you get married in nyc? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest web_norah Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 : JMT the oracle.......here is a simple line of thinking for you:salary doesnt go down when people get married..... people start saving money for having a family, daycare, larger space to live in.....and some choose not to live in the city because it costs $$$ duh. but how would you know anyway?

V. Barbarino Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 i think he did the right thing... i had a run in with the staff at a DD by my old job... I even called DD to complain, that they didn't speak english well enough... One day I will open a KC next store and crush them. I will put up signs that say "american owned, english speaking staff""I'LL MAKE A FORTUNE...people are sick of the two cultures.... One thing to come to America, another to come here and try and live like you did back in your other country... thus why dade is a mess..

Guest web_norah Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 i live in the West Village in a huge 2/2 the rest of Manhattan may live in a box but i dontsuck it up you dirty guido...i dont ride the shitty tunnel to come to the city, unlike your peeps coming to NYC and spending their dollars on a 800 tables (when the liquor and mixers combined cost 50).Nickjunkie has seen my place and you can ask him.

Guest slamminshaun Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 i live in the West Village in a huge 2/2 I didn't know 2/2 and huge could go in the same sentence. Huge compared to what? As far as this DD thing, I personally don't get riled up about employees speaking a foreign language with each other. Sometimes, it can speed things up if they speak in their native tongue, and since DD is based on speed, I see nothing wrong. However, if they make a half-ass effort to understand or speak English to their customers, then that's another story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest web_norah Posted March 18 Report Share Posted March 18 2/2 and huge in the West Village means you have space, in case you didnt know how apartment are around here Shaunmany people have limited space and apartment sizes. i am lucky i dont have that problem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could probably get a 6/4 on the water for the same price you pay for that 2/2 where I live....haha.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
