    Does it offend you...

    When your having a conversation with people and maybe two of them start speaking in their native language in front of you? My boss and his "VP" are from Israel and they do this to everyone. I think it's extemely rude.Your opinion?

Maybe tomorrow will be better for him."

    Not really. I deal with a lot of Latinos in my day to day life. switching back and forth between English and Spanish is a norm. Even using a mix of both languages in the same sentence is not unexpected.

    If I got the feeling they were doing it to exclude me from details I w2ould be bothered, but in and of itself, no.

    I would assume that they're plotting my demise and react accordingly with a preemptive strike.

    I do get paranoid alot. Especially when they keep looking at me when they're talking.
