Funny, I was interviewing potential employees. This woman proudly said that she speaks both languages. I just looked at her, thinking she was going to clarify. Nope, just proudly stared at me. She was so proud of herself that I just had to hire her. You go on and kick some ass young lady!

It turned out to be a great hire.
