說話太直 法裔服務生遭餐廳開除

A waiter fired for being aggressive and disrespectful claims he's not rude -- he's just French.

一名服務員因咄咄逼人和無禮而遭到解僱，他聲稱自己並不是行爲粗魯，只因他是法國人。

Guillaume Rey is suing a Vancouver restaurant in British Columbia's Human Rights Tribunal for "discrimination against my culture," according to the CBC.

據加拿大廣播公司報道，紀堯姆·雷伊正向不列顛哥倫比亞省人權法庭起訴一家溫哥華餐館，稱其“歧視我的文化”。

Milestones Restaurant said Rey was given the boot for the "aggressive tone" he used with co-workers while working as a waiter from October 2015 to August 2016.

這家名叫Milestones的餐館表示，雷伊被解僱是因爲在2015年10月至2016年8月工作期間，他對同事使用了“過激的言辭”。

He was fired after one faux pas left another server "borderline in tears," the restaurant manager said.

該餐廳的經理表示，在讓另一位服務員“滿含淚水”後，雷伊就被解僱了。

But Rey says his colleagues just misinterpreted his "direct and expressive" French.

但是雷伊表示，他的同事們只是誤解了他“直接而富有表現力”的法語而已。

He argues French people are just more straightforward than Canadians and this made him come off as sharp and abrasive.

他辯解稱，法國人只是比加拿大人更直率，這讓他顯得犀利而粗暴。

The eatery tried to dismiss the Frenchman's complaint but the tribunal denied its request.

該餐館試圖駁回這位法國人的控訴，但法庭方面拒絕了這一請求。
