Welcome to the land of equality

Recently at work they have been hiring a LOT of people who don't speak any english at all, most of them spanish. Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with people speaking other languages around me but when that is all you can speak I think that they should not be hired. When I need to communicate with my co-workers and I can't because I can't speak spanish, there is something wrong. Worst case senario it could be a danger to me. Im not thinking to that extreme though, when I say to someone "They need that pallet in stationary." I expect them to understand and not to just look at me blankly and continue to do what they do. It gets rather frustrating when I am supposed to train someone who does not understand a word I am saying.

Anyone have similar problems in their work place?
