Overheard in New York

I was on the subway last week, standing near two old ladies on the 6 train, who were seated in front of me. They were talking about how horrible it is that no one in the U.S. speaks English anymore. One of them said to the other: "Well, after living in New York for so many years, I've picked up a little bit of Spanish. Don't you know any Spanish?" The second woman responded, "Why should I speak Spanish? My maid is Chinese."
