Alright, I openly admit that what I'm about to say is neither politically correct or rational and it might not even be nice but it's how I feel and after last night I could not say it more...

IF YOU ARE GOING TO LIVE IN A COUNTRY OTHER THAN THE ONE IN WHICH YOU WERE BORN (or maybe you were born in the opposite country) TAKE THE TIME TO LEARN THE LANGUAGE OF SAID COUNTRY.

There. I said it. I know, it's horrible. It's awful. But come on people. If you chose to live in the US, whether legally or illegally, learn how to speak English. And I am so not trying to segregate those of Spanish decent. It just so happens that in TX, the ratio of Hispanics to Caucasians is 5:1. Or something like that.

Here's the deal: since I work in the ER, there are a plethora of individuals that come in whom do not speak English. Not a lick of it actually. They even fill out their slips in Spanish. And when there are no people around whom also speak Spanish, I have to go and find someone to translate. This may take awhile. This is not my fault. It's also quite embarrassing when the doctor, DOCTOR, has to get one of the housekeepers (whom I love dearly-really) to come and translate for him. Yeah.

Also note that I would feel the same way about an American going to live in say, Germany.

But since I know that this is a null point, I'll just stew about it. And of course write about it.
