Happened. First had a woman tell me I wasn't French enough today and then I got fired over some completely menial unimportant task because the boss was pissed off because I couldn't understand what he was saying and said I was standing around like a retard.
>>
>>221830531
you have come to the right place for reassurance

>>221830663
Sue for racism and never work a day in your life if you are brown/black
My condolences if you are white/slavic

Tu dois rentrer

lol that sucks. What was your job? Where are you from?
>>
>>221830663
> First had a woman tell me I wasn't French enough

So you were not swarthy enough? Grim.
>>
>>221830531
Could be worse, you could've been fired for not speaking proper French despite being a native French speaker.

>firing someone for being an unskilled, incompetent retard is racism

Fast food job. From Eastern Europe. Problem is I speak conversational French it can just be confusing sometimes and the boss had no patience for this very irrelevant unimportant task because I asked him to repeat himself a few times. Every other part of the job that actually mattered I could do just fine.
>>221830780
Pretty much
>>
>>221830531
good
>>
>>221831448
And I thought my country treated fast food wagies like garbage. You should mcwagie in Shartmerica. We literally hire fresh off the boat spics and jeets and, they can’t speak English at all.
>>
>>221831666
But they do the same except this was an open kitchen for suburban people so only real white people were allowed... In other locations of that franchise they have Afghanis who have been here for 5 years and don't speak French or read and they don't get fired because they're hidden away in a kitchen you can't see.

are you ukrainian?

?

>>221830663
>OK, I can't speak French, and can't do my job right because of this. HOWEVER, that is not a legitimate excuse to fire me!
>>
>>221830531
I guarantee you're simply too weak and slow. The language was just a convenient formulation.

A lot of thirdie immigrants work, not knowing a word of the language of the country where they live, because they are used to hard work
>>
>moving to a country without being fluent in the language first

>>221830531

You got fired for being a retard. No one wants a half human working for them. Your paycheck is going out of his earnings

What are you doing in France refugee?
>>
>>221830531
Yeah, xenophobia is ass
If you got hired after they read your CV and then got you fired for some mild inconvenience then its on the boss end

Why the vitriol?
>>
>>221830531
1) That isn't racism
2) You are an idiot that didn't meet the criteria for employment.
>>221830663
>I couldn't understand what he was saying and said I was standing around like a retard.
3) Lmao

Anon, how you handle this is up to you. But if you consider yourself a victim instead of being strong and getting through it, well...lol again.
>>
>>221830531
Should have said I SURRENDER! before being fired

So they hired a recent Slavic immigrant... then got made he wasn't totally 100% fluent despite most likely knowing that? Based on what he said they probably wanted to hire a white person up front for appearances.

>instead of being strong and getting through it, well...lol again.
He lost his job you retard. Plus what happend could actually be illegal based on French labour laws so what would be the right move? Take his workplace to a arbitrator or get a other job and possible face the same problem?

As I see it doesn't look like the same time as me I wouldn't have the nerve to claim the best way better for you to come over and over and take a shower a little sparke the same path to the store for you guys I miss you so it's a good day today and I feel sorry for you guys I miss you so it's a good day to beers and tacos
>>
>>221842982
I don't give a fuck. If you are hired and it is found out that you don't ACTUALLY meet the criteria (ie bluffed through the interview or the interviewer didn't place emphasis on certain traits because they are retarded) then you still don't meet the criteria and get fired.
>or get a other job and possible face the same problem?
Don't take a job that expects you to be fluent in a language you don't know?
>>
>>221843033
>Don't take a job that expects you to be fluent in a language you don't know?
The irony of that statement is that the places or people that say that tend to hire Indians with the thickest accents or staff as much Central/South Asians as possible while keeping a token local here and there.

I mean if he passed the interview it shows that he can hold a conversation

are you indian sir

as a european i will not stand for this, no person of color should feel unsafe here

that's funny cause American companies like Amazon specifically seek out third world retards who can't speak English (they won't unionize)

I heard an anecdote from a neighbour that when he was visiting Paris in the '70s, he was sat in a bar having a sneaky underage drink, and a pack of German backpackers entered the venue only to be denied service by the barman -- fibbing that they're closed. My neighbor later asked why he did such a thing, and the barman plainly stated that he couldn't stand Germans even 20 years past the war. He of course lived through the Vichy period. It surprised me to hear such animosity still persisted between Europeans.

I'm sorry to hear that, breton bro

My Grandpa also did stuff like this. Like showing wrong directions to Germanic tourists in the mountains.

Do you have the French nationality? I think for non French there are some papers to do to hire you and they didn't want to bother with this

You lost me there
>>
>>221830531
actually today i bullied french 'people' working under me, on working holiday visas, for being lazy and bad at english. even indians have better english.

>>221834465
only if they work illegally for their countrymen or they're kept in special facilities and managed like slaves e.g. southeast asians in korea.
if you're working for locals then you need to be able to follow instructions or you're useless.

>>221843033
Mais t'es con en fait et je parle le français assez bien pour travailler dans un restaurant fast food. C'est pas le problem. I'l y a des gens qui travaille pour la meme franchise dans un autre location qui parles AUCUNE Français et ils font leurs taf bien. J'étais harcelé car je deviens perdue quand quelqu'un commence de crier a moi pour aucune raison. >>221848143
It's just that the thing is slightly more nuanced and I did all of my actual duties just fine. It's frustrating for the dude to repeat himself but there's no reason to lose his shit over it and then fire me on the spot as if I'm confusing the word "serviettes" for what in my head I would call a "torchon".
I think the nuance of the issue is getting a bit lost on people who have maybe never truly learned a language as an adult and think that there is a large theoretical gap in my knowledge rather than abuse based on a bit of confusion that could have been avoided through keeping cool.

This was literally me when I took the call center job. Being used to only European French the first two weeks we're stressful as fuck cause I couldn't understand what they were saying.
