Example: several of my former coworkers are from Mexico, Peru and Argentina, meaning they share Spanish as a common language.
I used to practice Spanish with them, but my last charge (like a ward’s manager) would yell at us to stop it, use English only. She would get very angry really fast if she heard anything in a language she didn’t understand.
I find it stupid, because some of them would use Spanish to better explain to the new nurses how to do certain procedures, but maybe I’m missing something?
Was it really that unclear that I was talking other possible situations (based on the actual question that op posted) about not always and context seems to me to be fairly self explanatory.
Yes, it was unclear.
I’m sorry it wasn’t clear enough lol
You’re forgiven. Try to add to the conversation from the beginning next time, otherwise it looks like you’re disagreeing that this is an instance of racism and exerting power over workers
I would also like to point that I agreed with you here, being that this particular point was about racism and abusing workers. Here

Yes, after the fact. Your use of “context” without justification implies that OP’s specific situation, in an alternate context, would be fine, not that an alternate situation may be different.
E: you know what this stupid bickering is, well, stupid I wish you well, and I will stop responding to this thread.
Good move. Yeah this back and forth is pretty silly, like it’s not that serious lol. We got what you meant.
