I work in the travel industry and I come across many people who speak Spanish. It bothers me that when I ask them if they speak some English, they refuse to communicate. I know some Spanish but I feel that if you travel in the U.S., then you should be able to understand and speak some Spanish. I often get upset when foreigners, not just of the Spanish language, but others use their native tongue in front of U.S. citizens when they are working as a service to the community, i.e.,clothing stores, restaurants, etc. I feel that is rude and disrespectful!
