I really could care less if my nail techs are talking to one another in Korean! Maybe it's because I could care less if they are talking about me?

I think the "only English" rule is dumb. If you are waiting on me and doing your job, I'm happy. If you are standing around chatting with your friends, in ANY language, that is when I get mad! Maybe it's because I'm in NYC so I'm used to hearing other languages? I don't know, but I just don't think it's hurting anyone if you are talking to your friend in another language, as long as you are doing your job well. I especially don't agree with English only on breaks! That's ridiculous! What if you had to call your mom and she only spoke French?

Also, I used to work at a French bank here in NYC. Many of the expats spoke French all the time (when not in meetings or working w/the Americans. It was never a problem. And I was never offended or bothered.
