Guess who again regrets they took Russian and German, which don’t come into play that often, instead of Spanish, which would be profoundly helpful for working with recent immigrants?

@Leucrotta

I took Spanish, but I haven't used it in so long that I've lost most of it. I really need to re-up on that, especially considering I live so close to the Mexican border and have plenty of opportunities to use it.

@zetasyanthis right now I’m working for a property management company and many renters or would be renters are great with Spanish but not English, and I feel like I’m not helpful enough as a result.

@Leucrotta

I feel you, but you shouldn't beat yourself up too much. You're a good person at heart, and you try to help as best you can. <3
