Restaurant Conflict Over Language Barrier
She can't speak English. She can't do her job.
I, I-
Go off and learn English, love.
I-
You'll be better in the world if you can speak the
language.
Go to you.
I didn't know you were filming, love.
Where's my, uh, restaurant stuff that I've ordered that, side sauce
and what not?
The sauce, the sauce and the rice.
You didn't order... You ordered the sauce on the side, mate.
I ordered-
You didn't order the sauce on it. I mean, how stupid in this restaurant so-
I thought you ordered sauce anyway.
Sorry, love.
So it was part of the side dish. I, I saw sauce, sauce-
Uh, th- th- th- if you can't speak English,
can you just go and get somebody who
can?
Their power trip doesn't stop there.
I can, I can replace.
Replace it?
Replace it.
Replace the bloody... Well, that looks like a bird's nest, then.
I want my starters, what we've had, and all this. I ain't paying for this .
Not, not paying for it.
It's not coming back.
My birthday, you ruined my birthday.
The manager had to step in.
What's the problem, ladies?
I actually ordered my sauce on the side.
What, what sauce did you want on the side?
Show her the beef, Carrie. She'll not know what they serve in your
restaurant.
You ordered for her like a third party.
Um-
The bystander couldn't watch them attack her any longer.
Um, I'm, I'm, I'm sor- I, I'm, I'm sorry, but I think the way-
Happy, are you?
The way you're speaking to these two is a joke.
Listen.
It's not acceptable.
Look, uh-
Shut up
... no offense, my love-
Big time
... but you're, you're a customer, so can you sit down
and just enjoy your evening?
I'll deal with this.
Give this lady some member of staff.
You're crap.
Does she not have an eye in?
Right.
You know, her presentation, nobody eats-
Okay, right
... if you do sh-
Okay.
The presentation of her-
Th- th- this young lady-
The presentation is you

She works hard and she's very-
Congratulations
... she's very good at her job. You come-
Really?
You come-
She served it on a tray. That's the drinks tray.
All, all-
They wanted the waitress to get fired.
Do you know what?
You, you-
You've ruined a birthday. Why don't you try, yeah, getting some
staff who can actually speak a bit coherently
and, and actually speak English.
Listen, what are you saying?
She can't speak English.
She-
That's pitiful.
But-
Surely you can understand that one.
Just hang on a minute.
She can't speak English. She can't do her job.
I, I understand that. I think it's your lot
that have got a problem with your ears,
'cause I can understand her.
Well, um, it's not understanding her. She obviously doesn't understand us.
She's here to serve food.
Yeah, yeah.
And she can't... She serves it on a drinks tray.
They should get kicked out.
You need to get out now.
No, we don't.
You're ruin every-
No, we don't.
You ruin, you ruin-
No, we don't.
You're ruining every-
No, we don't.
You're ruining everybody's evening.
Okay.
I'll tell you something.
How dare you.
How dare you?
you.
You are the rudest three ladies I've ever met, and I've worked-
This is the worst meal-
Okay
... that we've ever had.
Happy birthday.
Yeah, congratulations. Yeah.
Happy birthday. You don't have to pay, but get out.
Go away.
You've ruined her day.
Go away.
You insulted this young lady who works hard.
Whatever. Whatever.
What do you, what do you-
Whatever. You being insulting, me.
What else? W- what's wrong with the food? Do you want me to get the chef?
We've given it to her.
Yeah, I already said that to you.
She's the chef.
Why won't you get the-
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa

Yes, yes.
Go.
Listen.
Stop.
You're shouting the whole restaurant down.
I don't give a .
Yeah, that's the problem.
Her birthday's been ruined.
Tell you what.
Her birthday's been ruined.

You don't want to hear this.
Really.
Right, you three out.
Go off and learn English, love.
I-
You'll be better in the world if you can speak the language.
Go to you for keeping your mouth shut.
No, I shouldn't. Why should I?
This is, this is my establishment.
Come to this country, learn to speak the language.
Get out.
Stop shouting at me. Get out.
Get out. Right, listen. You're not having that,
