'Speak English' Signs OK at Philly Shop
It just seems pointless to me. Immigrants don't generally come up to you and start speaking non-English languages if they don't already know you speak their language. Spanish-speaking people, for example, generally reserve speaking Spanish to other Spanish-speaking people, and don't come up to English-speaking people and start babbling at them in Spanish. At least I haven't expereinced that. So if the cheesesteak guy only speaks English, how much trouble has he really had with people trying to get their cheesesteak from him in Spanish? How would they even do that? What are they going to order --- a quesocarne? And if he does have an employee working the register who does speak a different language, what does it matter if the customer orders in a language that the cashier understands? Seems like this is just pointless.
