Sometimes I speak Mandarin at work but I try to keep it in my office (door closed) or very quietly and discreetly. I've often yelled at people who speak mandarin or especially LOUD cantonese speakers that they should at least make an attempt to tone it down. You have to be aware of your surroundings and where people are located.
The other day there were 2 people speaking an eastern european language very loudly right in front of the secretary who was talking to a client on the phone. I had to shoo them away.
