We have one black guy that works with us that is straight out of the Chicago ghetto. At first he was real hard to understand. Then we started giving him shit about his speach and he got better.
It was always Ax instead of ask [and shit like that]. So we would stop him in mid sentance and say, why do you want to AX me. I didn't do anything wrong. After 4 years of working with us crackers he can now be understood. I am sure that when he goes home on vacations/visits he goes right back to the old way of speaking, but at least now he dont sound like a uneducated street thug when he is on a job site.
