If its true, then here's the solution:

They can fuck off back to their own fucking country if they don't fucking like it, uppity cunts.

If its not true, then meh, at least it got the veins in my forehead throbbing Laughing

Generally.

Its been my experience in a lot of fast food establishments, many of the supposed English speaking people can't speak English anyway, making the entire point moot.

Sounds like a Daily Mail head line to me.

i hear that mr horsey,

i went to kfc once and made my order,had to repeat it 3 times, and they still managed to get it wrong.

i've nothing against people coming to the uk to work and better their lives. but i firmly believe that if you are going to work in an english speaking country at front of house level then you do need a basic understanding of the english language.

Maybe you should stop giving business to places that employ such people then Smile... not sure it can be blamed on the employee as much as the company/management that employs them for that position.

Maybe they had had people complaining about them speaking their own language in work, so decided to make it unilateral? Smile

It’s more annoying if they can speak English perfectly well, and they speak it occasionally and the drop into Polish when they feel it’s needed. It’s rude and shitty at the same time.

What’s even more annoying than that? Two guys at work, one English and one from Dubai. Both speak English as their first language. They’ll come into the office and start speaking French. Loudly.
What’s that about??

I was in Burger King about a month ago. I was served by A korean woman (she looked korean anyway), she was about 40 looked normal, was manager. Anyway gets to the till she says "yes", I gave her my order she took it down fine. Puts her hand out for the money not telling me how much it was. I gave her a tenner, she got the change and said "there" and slammed the money down on the counter. I said thanks, picked it up and waited for my food. I just assumed she was going through the change or something and being ignorant. She then served the next customer, a young chinese lass probablys a uni student. She was uber polite to her, asking if she wanted any sauce and all this shit. My food came and she pushed the tray towards me and said "there" again. I was like wtf. Went back a couple of days ago and she has gone, asked the lass working where she is and she said she was sacked after numerous complaints from customers lol.

My local spar was supermarket sized and everybody who worked there was polish. They even sold polish beer, vodka and newspapers. I met 1 guy who worked there who wasn't polish, he fucking hated it as they all refused to speak english Laughing

At least polish is a proper language, not like fucking welsh. I get sick of people spitting welsh at me and expecting me to have a clue. Old women screaching welsh at the top of their high pitched voices as they feel they have the god given right / duty to be as loud about speaking welsh as possible. Worst is the parents who teach their kids nothing but welsh. I've met a few teenagers who struggle like hell to speak english because of this. When half the world is despirate to learn english, is it not retarded not to teach your kids i when they are lucky enough to live in a country where it is the first language?

I think the root of the problem is that many English people struggle to read and write properly.

What chance do children have if their parents are illiterate?

Whats white and works in KFC?




The light switch.


Honestly, i hate KFC because of all the foreigners behind the counter, its my home town, just let me be served by someone WHO GREW UP HERE, or atleast in this country. Death of good customer service, because the workers can't fucking speak the language.

To be fair last time i was in holland they had banned the dutch shirt in certain places. I guess they got sick of a few dick heads getting into fights about football and thought it was a way of telling regular people from hooligans.

Don't you just do the chicken wing thing with the arms and bob your head a bit, perhaps grabbing your balls if you want the popcorn chicken?

No?!? Those evil shit-bags! Selling something that there's a market for in the area? What do they think it is, a f***ing shop or something?!

How is that any different to dickhead ENG-UR-LAND morons chatting shit loudly in English - usually in some faux-gangster patois?

I actually prefer it when I can't understand conversations in the street, it allows me to kid myself they are discussing the latest news about the recession, or are critiquing the Bach concert they went to the night before.

I live in West London which is 'vibrant and diverse' (it's got lots of people wot isn't from around 'ere) and seldom understand a word in the high street, as the crowds of Primani-clad overstayers and foreign 'students' part before my mighty frame.

That's far preferable to my occasional trip to Watford, where the white women look like something from Jurassic Park, and the air is turned blue by foul-mouthed English rants by foul, uncouth people.

Us Brits need to get over ourselves - sure, there's plenty of twats out there, but we've got more than our fair share born over here - and they've got very little excuse for it.

By the way, I don't actually believe the 'story' in the OP - sounds completely fictional.

Come now Mr J, why should the OP let something as trivial as the truth get in the way of a good racist rant?
