The customer was an ass...
My legal immigrant grandparents spoke their native tongue in public. So did my parents who were born here. No one to my knowledge ever told them to go back to where they came from. And BTW the manager was born HERE.
My parents and grandparents spoke to each other in Italian in public. BFD. He wasn’t requiring her to order in Spanish.
But not on stage!
When people are working here in the US they should be speaking ENGLISH, except if a customer initiates a conversation in another language.
I remember being in Israel at a hotel waiting to check in and two hotel employees were conversing in Russian. That's just wrong. They should have been speaking Hebrew (which I don't really understand, so that's not my issue) or retired to some place where customers could not hear them.

Why do Hispanics born is the USA still have accent when they speak English? I don’t get that. My fathers parents did not speak English and he had no “old country” accent.
Then he should know to speak English.
Yeah I agree with you. Where I grew up many of my friends were second generation Italian. Their parents and grandparents walked around the neighborhood speaking Italian to each other all the time.
This manager apparently does speak English, and did address them in English when they spoke.
These ***ignorant*** women are just providing tar for the Democrat’s brush....
Thats unfortunate, someone should have. My family spoke its native language for 150ish years after arriving here but werent rude enough to do so in public.
The manager was an asshole. He should have shut up and walked away from the two women. Instead he puffed up his chest and went all latino machismo on them. He should have been relieved of his duties. When the white people don’t come to your restaurant anymore, you will be out of business shortly.
I agree. Sad thing is the left will try to paint us by this idiot’s brush. As far as I understand Spanish speakers have been part of America since it was even a country - in Texas, California, ect.
