Example: several of my former coworkers are from Mexico, Peru and Argentina, meaning they share Spanish as a common language.

I used to practice Spanish with them, but my last charge (like a ward’s manager) would yell at us to stop it, use English only. She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.

I find it stupid, because some of them would use Spanish to better explain to the new nurses how to do certain procedures, but maybe I’m missing something?

    Well, that’s a lot of questions you Just Asked.

    I mentioned this also comes up in the various non-English speaking countries, right? Including ones that Hexbear likes, where I have family connections, because I’m guessing pulling rank is where this is going.
