If moving there due to a job or other reason, perhaps a more detailed, in-depth study and practice of the destination country&#8217;s language. <\/p>\n<p>Dito for those who want to come to the United States or to another English-speaking country. <\/p>\n<p>A couple were in the mood for some Taco Bell. They rolled into the drive through, just like they&#8217;d do at any other drive through, in order to place their order. <\/p>\n<p>There was a problem though.<\/p>\n<p>The employee at the Taco Bell drive through claimed that she didn&#8217;t speak English. The customer tried to reason with her, even schooled her on how she could be doing her job. The employee still insisted that she didn&#8217;t speak English.<\/p>\n<p>From <a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/food-drink\/2018\/09\/15\/taco-bell-employee-fired-for-refusing-to-serve-english-speaking-customer.html\">Fox News<\/a>:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p> After getting nowhere, Montgomery asks to speak with a manager.<\/p>\n<p>The employee, who identifies herself in the video as Luisa, replies in Spanish: &#8220;She is in her house sleeping,&#8221; in a dismissive tone before saying &#8220;Honey, I have a car behind you,&#8221; and closing the window.    <\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Towards the end, the customer asks, in English, what the employee&#8217;s name was. <\/p>\n<p>Luisa answered, despite claiming that she didn&#8217;t speak English. She couldn&#8217;t even use this as a, &#8220;Well, that&#8217;s a common English question that folks know.&#8221; Unless the signs and menu in the restaurant are all in Spanish&#8230; Or they honestly don&#8217;t speak English.  <\/p>\n<p>Their community identifies mostly as Hispanic or Latino. <\/p>\n<p>However, someone representing the minority in that community had to have visited that restaurant while Luisa worked there. Or, is this a case where they, and their customers, only spoke Spanish at that specific Taco Bell?<\/p>\n<p>A video of the incident:<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/g5q6wc2EDpM?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-US&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation allow-popups-to-escape-sandbox\"><\/iframe><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chances are that if you wanted to spend a long time in another country, you&#8217;d want &hellip; <a title=\"Taco Bell Employee &#8220;Doesn&#8217;t&#8221; Speak English\" class=\"hm-read-more\" href=\"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/?p=81726\"><span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Taco Bell Employee &#8220;Doesn&#8217;t&#8221; Speak English<\/span>Read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":661,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[209],"tags":[330,329],"class_list":["post-81726","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-teh-stoopid","tag-english","tag-taco-bell"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81726","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/661"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=81726"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/81726\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=81726"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=81726"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.azuse.cloud\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=81726"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
