I was recently laid off of my job at a plant that processes strawberries because I could not work more than 40 hours a week. I was under the impression that 40 was the standard. The only language I heard during my shift was Spanish.  This is America yet all the meetings were also in Spanish. Is this the new face of employment in the age of Trump?

There are surely other businesses who hire people who use English as the second language of its employees. I can only assume that this is the new normal in certain parts of this country. I feel no animosity towards those who come here looking for a better life.That is what America is supposed to be about. But its legal citizens shouldn’t have to take a back seat when it comes to the workplace.
