Manager being cruel and unkind

I don't see how this is a Dept. of Labor issue.

So any word back from the DOL?


I'm betting they say the same things that we have ....

This is not a DOL issue.

I'm comfused. There were three managers and they were also the only
cashiers? And what are you calling flirting? There have been many
times that I was talking to a male and someone accused me of flirting
when I was just being nice.

If the Chinese customers did NOT understand English, then how did said
customer know to get mad and depart the line when the manager replied
to him solely in English?

Sounds to me like the customer DID know some English.

Some restaurants have photo menus for people who can not read English.
It would be nice if this place had one. The lady (who may have been a
toutist, not an immigrant) could have pointed to what she wanted.
If I were a tourist in China, I'd have great difficulty ordering a
meal in a reataurant.

This is definitely not an issue for the NYS Department of Labor.

Being bilingual is a bonus but not a requirement.



Now granted I've been on the other side of things where I was the
person who couldn't speak the local language.


I learned to point to menus - the ones in Japan do have pictures. And
I learned to have a translation book, and to learn the words of my
favorite foods.

If the deaf person can pick up their own language they can certainly
learn English. Also if they are deaf or disabled they should not be
shopping without assistance.

in employment. How a jackass talks to and about customers is not
their concern. I hope the owner gets back with you, though, and you
have the manager's name.
