Depends

In America, if it's a worker where I'm doing business/shopping, it's frustrating. If outside that scenario, or in another country - doesn't bother me in the least.

In America, there is a freedom of not only speech but also an implied freedom to speak any language you would like to. The question does not imply whether or not the person speaking the other language is speaking directly to the person, so there is a likelihood that they can speak a little English. So, being bothered by simply hearing someone speak another language is inherently unnecessary.

people may not have the opportunity to learn another language and today we have technology to communicate with everyone.

 @9J5XPSF from Ohio  disagreed…1yr1Y

If they are communicating with another worker and speak English to you I don't understand being frustrated, they are probably frustrated they have to speak English to work but at the end of the day you only have that interaction once.

This is America, the land of the free. Therefore, people have the freedom to speak the language they are most comfortable with.

Biden's Trash Talk: President Calls Trump Supporters "Garbage" Over Racial Jokes

President Biden sparked backlash on Tuesday when he appeared to compare supporters of former President Trump to garbage after commenting on a racist joke a comedian made at a Trump rally days earlier likening Puerto Rico to an “island of garbage.”The White House in a statement argued that the president was referring to the rhetoric at Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally on Sunday as “garbage.”“The President referred to the hateful rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally as ‘garbage,’” deputy press secretary Andrew Bates said in a statement.It also provided a fuller transcript of the comment, which included an apostrophe with “supporter’s,” to indicate Biden was referring to comedian Tony Hinchcliffe’s “demonization of Latinos” as “garbage.”Hinchcliffe delivered a comedic set at a Madison Square Garden rally for Trump on Sunday in New York City that mocked Latinos, Jews and Black men and included a joke comparing Puerto Rico to a “floating island of garbage.”And just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a ‘floating island of garbage.’ Well, let me tell you something. I don’t — I — I don’t know the Puerto Rican that — that I know — or a Puerto Rico, where I’m from, in my home state of Delaware, they’re good, decent, honorable people. “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporter’s — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American. It’s totally contrary to everything we’ve done, everything we’ve been,” Biden said, according to the transcript provided by the White House.In a post on X, Biden himself asserted he was referring to the rhetoric from Hinchcliffe.
