UK, Ireland /
Experiences of Irish people who moved to Poland [27]
people can be friendly in the house for dinner but in a
shop or government office it is maddening how unhelpful they can be.
if you ever had to go to a public office here in chicago area you would probably discover a new meaning of the word unhelpful
If you are part of a good family here (ie dating or married to their daughter) then hey will go out of their way to help you, but do not expect any stranger to life a finger.
you can expect the same in any country cooper.
It seems to me like you were born yesterday.....
Things that are commonplace in the West like customer service, warranties, good quality goods...are not commonplace here.
cooper people who have never been out side of poland would probably belive your story but not those who live abroad and experienced exactly the same things in other countries...such as bad customer service, broken things, etc...
Poles are also often very difficult to do business with
with the massive upcharge on imported goods and cheap labor you can make good business here
you need to decide...
