If you are hired by a corporation like McDonalds you should speak English. The goal is to make the customers happy, not uncomfortible. If you work for a privately owned business/restraunt then speak whatever language you want, just don't expect me to come eat there. If I cannot communicate with the employees I won't eat there. I researve my right to a choice.
As for being in America and having to speak English, there are portions of the states in which the english-speaking person is in the minority, and if your base language is English then you are descriminated against such as in English-based areas.
It tends to deal with a majority/minority issue.
Edit: How many people have gone on vacation to other countries without learning their spoken language?
