It is simple.Puzzler is used to people finding CR better than Poland.(like Michal).So he supposed that Foreigner did the same because Puzzler had no experience of czech customer service to suspect that the sentence meant something different.

They are not conmen like in South Europe.They can for example change your money for fewer zlotys than they should and then claim that their ratio(!) is that.Or the ticket inspector will ask for a bribe to let you in the first class vagon when paying ticket for second class.Or the hotel receptionist charging breakfast while knowing that you will check out in the night.Such small cons.

The polish con style is embarassing,not just the con action itself.A same or greater con by an Italian would even produce a pleasure because the Italians are excellent con-artists.

It is czech humor actually,difficult for the foreigners to interpretate.For example fat women in tourist places,irony to the customer,challenging every aspect of him.To me it seemed humor but I do not think most foreigners viewed it the same way.
In comparison to that Poland looks like heaven.In Poland there is actually customer service which is non-existant as concept in Germany.In the latter the employee has more rights than the customer,all shops clos by 14.00,nobody offers any assistance(except in mobile phone shops),nobody smiles etc.
However the public sector is much better in Germany than in Poland.(it works).
my experiences of customer service in prague was that it's the worst i've ever experienced and the people who were working there seemed to make a point of being rude and deceitful.

EU effect.There are directions for that.
If you notice on the whole the road and railway network is better in the west and north Poland where there were Germans.It is much worse in the East where there have been Russians.Actually by looking at maps of it,you can accurately know where the borders lay 90 years ago.
