but it PISSES me OFF when I go somewhere to spend my AMERICAN freaking dollars and I CANNOT understand what the person is saying....
Welcome to business as usual in Dodge City Mexico.

I've noticed at the Sonic the carhops don't do much speaking. I usually get a quiet hello and nothing else. If you ask a question, in English, you get a grunt and a sort of sign language pointing toward someone inside.

We had a rather odd experience at the Subway yesterday. I'm sure the people behind the counter were speaking English but for some reason it was hard to understand. I laughed my butt off when the guy behind the counter asked my wife, after taking her first order, if she would like another sandwich and my wife heard would you like a banana sandwich? The look on her face was priceless.

I think they were just mumbling too fast or something.
