Just had the sweetest customer. Beautiful young woman, looked kinda like a Hollywood star (which she might've been)
Anyways, the thing is that she's Mexican, born in Mexico City by Mexican parents, but moved to LA ten years ago. AND SHE SPOKE ALMOST NO SPANISH! How do you not speak your mother tongue? How do you forget it while living in California, where 80% of the population speaks it? And especially when you leave Mexico while no longer a child? HOW? WHY?! I don't get it.
Ugh. That pisses me off. And it's a shame that people don't get that having a second language is a privilege and should be protected and preserved at all cost.
