Foreigners that go to other countries usually don't ecounter people that speak the same language anyways unless they speak the same language as the foreign country. The totally english speaking at work would be for the people that live here. Immigrants that don't try to get citizenship don't even bother to try to learn English these days. If you live in this country you should at least know some English. If businesses and schools only used english they would be forced to learn English. They can speak their language at home and with family and friends that cool. I would not ask anyone to give up their language, just to learn another one too. I think if you have a language barrier in your own country it hurts everyone. A guy that only spoke Spanish asked me directions to somewhere. My spanish is limited so he got fustrated. As he walked away I believe he said i need to learn how to speak Spanish. Those are simple enough words in spanish for even me to recognize. I was like this is America you should learn English or just deal with not be able to talk to people that speak English. Too bad he probably didn't understand.
