In fast food restaurants in the urban parts of LA you essentially had to speak Spanish to work there until just a couple of years ago. Black kids looking for work reported being told that they couldn't be hired because they wouldn't be able to communicate with the mostly native Spanish-speaking workers. The few Americans that worked there were all Hispanic and bilingual. Sometimes I would order and have no idea what the person taking my order was saying back to me and I feel like I'm very good at understanding people with accents. |
