Two Haitian immigrants who work for a cleaning company at Logan International Airport said they have been unfairly disciplined for speaking Creole on the job.
One said she was fired by the company, Flight Services & Systems, and the other said he was suspended. The two have filed complaints with the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination and plan to bring their situation before board members of Logan’s operator, the Massachusetts Port Authority, at their monthly meeting Thursday.

They were here illegaly invited by Mumbles and they should speak English if they want work here. They were plotting to do bad things so they speak so others can't understand them.
Wait you must be confused, or just a moron who is a xenophobe and a bigot. How do you know they are illegal immigrants plotting to do bad things because they're speaking a their language? Please don't answer because you'll just respond with another moronic comment. Boston is crawling with people like you, it's so disgusting.
So what's this story really about? Seem simple? Well, suppose these were two Irish immigrants calining they lost a job for speaking Gaelic.
What would be different? No MCAD looking for a reason for existing. SEIU wouldn't see much benefit from interferring. And definiately not a news story from the Globe's perspective.
Answer - power through victimization, fed by all the usual suspects.
