Someone who speaks English

You work on the floor of a large hardware store.

Your coworker Tuan, who moved to the country three years ago and speaks with an accent, has been helping a customer find a plumbing part. The customer's voice rises, and you walk over.

What's said in the scene

Customer: I've explained this three times. Can I talk to someone who actually speaks English?

Tuan: (quietly) Sir, I understand. It's the half-inch fitting you need. I can show you.

Customer: (turning to you) You. Can you help me?

The two questions

  1. 1What would you do?
  2. 2How should staff respond when a customer treats a coworker with disrespect?
