Why do they hire non English speaking workers?

Sometimes I wonder how half the people working in food retail companies get customer focused jobs when they either cannot speak English, are miserable all the time or just don't have any concept of customer service. Understand if they are given jobs out the back where little interaction is required, but when its front of house, its quite ridiculous. Its especially annoying as I spent six months looking for a job after graduating university and applied for pretty much every job going in my area including all the local supermarkets and was rejected most of them, when people already working there couldn't or wouldn't help their customers.

I just assume that these people get jobs because they know somebody working at the store already, which isn't fair at all. And by the way Tesco is actually one of the highest paying food retail companies, paying more than Waitrose, Asda, Sainsburys and Morrisons. (Starting wage £7.15 ph, £10 ph on Sundays) Not sure about the stores in your area, but the one I work at has three interview stages and everyone speaks excellent English.

That's completely ridiculous - people should at least have to learn the lingo to be able to work here! An unemployed British person could be doing that job and by the sound of it doing much better... you should speak with your manager and tell them it's not working out coz he can't understand you!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
