Being multilingual is a skill recognized by employers globally and having Spanish as a first or second language is a complete asset.

So, it’s a complete bonus if a cab driver speaks English and Spanish and Spanish for Spanish customers.

But this TikToker, who happens to speak English and Spanish, was concerned when she found on a recent trip to LA that she could actually save $5 by getting an UberESPAÑOL rather than an UberX.

She then did research and found a minority of Uber’s workers were Spanish speakers.

@sarcasm.generator told her followers: “Uber is doing something potentially very questionable.”

She told how she was at a conference and was trying to get an Uber from the airport. She found she could save $5 by getting a Spanish driver.

She said: “I pull up my Uber menu and I notice that  is $5 cheaper than UberX. Since I speak Español and like saving money, I get that ride.”

But this bothered her so she looked into it and found research stating there was a minority of Spanish workers at Uber.

She added: “For legal reasons I am not asserting anything about why Uber Español rides could be cheaper than an UberX.”

Lets hope all Spanish speaking workers everywhere are paid as much as anyone else!
