<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">you'd be surprised about thigns like this...Having been a supervisor at UPS, I had to deal with this kind of shit all the time. Because a company is hard up for employees, they will hire people who literally speak no english...the neat little trick is to have a bi-lingual person who ALREADY works there fill out the application with the person. Stuff like this goes on all the time at lots of companies, because a lot of the time there are "equal opportunity" quotas that have to be filled. It's not fair to the customer and or to the person being hired. But if you are "faking it" or don't care about learning the language, then I guess it doesn't really matter [img]eek.gif[/img]Originally posted by overtkill:

we have that problem up here in toronto only its with chinese ppl.
actually, to be honest, I think americans are the worst when it comes to stuff like this...we tend to have that "I'm in America no matter where I am" attitude...gee, maybe that's why all other countries hate us [img]wink.gif[/img]
thats why I never even try the phone call to see if they have them. doesnt matter who answers, they dont have a clue
Don't worry You'll get one..
I'm not trying to sound harsh here by any means. I really want to know.
If you were to get a job in Japan, would you feel obligated to learn their language before moving to the country and taking the job?
It may not be fair, but it is a free country.
I have been in many cases where I'm the minority being born in Canada. My junior high school had more Phillipino, Korean, Iraqi, Iranian, Sudanese, Viet Namese, Polish, Russian and countless other nationalities then it did plain 'ol white Canadians. Some of my best friends there hardly spoke english at all. But we still managed to communicate.
Now I'm working at a bank in one of the most run down, ethnically diverse neighbourhoods in Calgary. You have to find a way to get along. And the foreign customers are, for the most part, understanding and patient.
