Spanish-speaking custodial workers at the Auraria Higher Education Center in Colorado, a campus that serves students from three colleges, are suing based on what they say is a failure of their bosses to communicate with them in their native language, according to published reports.


The Denver Post reported that Tim Markham, the attorney representing the workers, said that the center only communicated with its workers in English – which had resulted in men suffering injuries on the job as well as changes in their schedule that were detrimental to them.

Now, speaking English in the workplace is a bad thing. WTF???

You come here, assimilate. Be bi-lingual, that's a good thing. But don't demand employers cater to you because you're too fucking lazy or stupid to learn the language of the country YOU CHOSE to come to.

Anyone want to bet that the lawyers are the only winners in this one?

Why is the university hiring people that can't speak or read English in the first place?

Gaffer. It's the OBAMA WAY. If it worked for a Community Organizer who taught ACORN members to cheat, lie, steal, and sue. Why shouldn't it work for Illegal's who are almost guaranteed Constitutional Rights, and Benefits....FOR FREE???
