I was at work today, and I had customers who only spoke Spanish, and we all got out our phones to go to google translate. We're passing our phones to each other to read and type responses and at the very end we smiled and they went, "thank you!" in english and I respond, "¡Gracias!" and honestly? Things like this make me so happy to be alive.

#positivity #i have been SLACKING in my spanish. and i panicked a bit lmao...#i think it was really sweet how they spoke english just to say thank you. like... 😭😭😭#nobody else at work speaks spanish because like... probably 99% of my town speaks english in public #if we were in the town over then YES. there would likely be a spanish speaker to help but not here sadly (until i stop slacking that is)#like in the town over? they have bilingual signs. here we don't #that's the weird thing about the usa i guess... even going to the town over can be a TOTALLY different place #i guess that's the same all over the world. especially if you can drive for a half hour and be in a different COUNTRY #(that's still wild to think about. if i drive a half hour i will be maybe in the closest town to me. maybe.)
