Pretty close to the same amount of people who are deaf. And you'll never see a business make massive policy changes to ensure that staff never just start talking to people under an assumption that they can hear.

Even Starbucks, who teaches staff ASL signs, still talks using their mouths to customers.

Though I guess with fat people the "stop ass-uming things! you can't tell I'm different!" argument doesn't apply, cause, well, just LOOK at them.

Starbucks teaches their staff ASL signs? Is this really widespread? I wish they had done that when I had worked there!
