I used to work in a multi-lingual, 24 hour call centre, and the rule was always that English only was spoken on the floor between colleagues. Spanish, Russian, German, French, Urdu, Punjabi, Portuguese, Afrikaans, Albanian, Serbo-Croat, Thai, the list of languages we spoke was endless.
Nobody minded.
