I’m annoyed about a few things…I recently learned about the Salvation Army’s personnel policy to have all their employees able to speak English within one year. The U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) has filed a suit against The Salvation Army for discriminating against two Hispanic employees by requiring them to comply with an English-only policy and imposing an English fluency requirement, even though the employees successfully performed their job duties for at least five years prior to their termination.I have to tell you this angers me. I hear people with influence share their views on this stating for the most part that “They” come to our country “they” should learn our language. One person on the View said that she is insulted when someone doesn’t learn English and that there is no problem learning English “since there are free English programs out there”.
Nancy Pelosi is trying to kill an amendment that would protect employers from federal lawsuits from employees fired or not hired due to this “policy”.
Another thing that has me annoyed is how the government wants to tell parents to discipline their children. I mean get real here? Since 1979 nineteen countries led by Sweden have banned corporal punishment by parents of kids in the home. A bill scheduled for debate today before the Massachusetts legislature would make that state the first to join the trend. I am not a habitual spanker but when needed I have spanked. I think its crazy for the government to dictate how we should discipline our kids and make parents fear Children’s Protective Services ! There are many other issues the government should be trying to intervene in then a person’s home.
