Hello! So, I work in a location with a lot of foreigners/tourists. Most of them speak Spanish or Portuguese. I speak English and French, but so far have not met a single French speaker. A lot of times while working on the sales floor, I'll have a Spanish or Portuguese-speaking guest come up to me but I am unable to help because I don't speak or understand the language. I try to communicate this with them, but many of them start raising their voices and making a scene and I am not quite sure how to handle it besides smile and be polite. Many of my other TMs only speak English (we have 2-3 that do speak some Spanish). How do you guys handle language barriers?
