I was offered Spanish and ASL. I took ASL once in the sixth grade, then never again, can't remember exactly why, I need to look into learning it. Took Spanish all throughout middle and highschool though. But yeah, no Chinese. You would probably have to take a college course for that or something

My older sister was offered Japanese at her school, but that's not Chinese.

I don't get how they expect someone with entry-level experience to know it. The only way is if they were from China or a surrounding country that speaks Chinese.

Exactly. Which definitely shrinks the people they can hire

I'm not willing to learn the language for that one job either.

That's understandable. And there probably aren't very many others that require it, so it would be a waste of time most likely

Right. It's too much time and effort in my opinion. Where else would I even use that language? We're in the United States. I don't know about you, but I've probably never heard anyone in person speak Chinese.

Me neither, other than the internet, but that doesn't count

It's not practical to learn it just for that. I'd have to be moving to China for some reason to learn it. Moving to China is probably far down the list of things I want to do.

I have no reason to go there.

Yeah, I don't really plan to leave the US much

Same. I do want to travel, though.

Yeah, I've always wanted to go to Mexico, then again, that's not even leaving the continent XD
