UK, Ireland / What's it really like being a Polish worker in the UK? [25]

i think the polish come here because they can and they think life will be better-just like- the english go to spain-some have plans many just take it as it comes-but i think many go or eventually go back. i also think the traditional family values and expectations can be suffocating-so they come here for some "freedom" of expression-these people must then become confused by what they really want-hence the answer "dunno"

i never asked you to justify your decisions- think you are very brave!

most polish people here in the uk seem to work full-time hours plus overtime or have 2or 3 jobs and you manage on what you have comimg in. i was just wondering how you would manage in poland?as it appears your income in england is considered average in poland-so i am sure you are researching everything-so what do you reckon you could survive on in poland? and if you can survive on average wage-why are all the polish moaning about things if poland has better quality of life-just a little confused-

Love / couples in love in poland who do not live together-why? [4]


his sister has two children and she isnt married she lives with her partner- i think it may have something to do with her family keeping him away from her-he got her pregnant at 16-he says he loves her- i said why are you not together then- he doesnt talk about it-he has no photos of her or the child-the child and the girlfriend do exist- i have spoken to her- just wondered what people on here think- before you get the wrong idea i have a boyfriend-so i am not interested in my polish friend romantically-he is such a nice person just want to help him-


- you mean they dont like him/her?-BUT if you love someone how can you bear this?

Life / "well-off" income in poland [26]

my friend-a welder from the shipyards in poland-says no work there-earned about £600-800-a month-so above average-but he has little in the way of clothes and materialistic items-portrays himself as poor-he has been told he could double even treble his wage here if he works as welder-

so is he just greedy?
and wwaht happens if he works here for a few years-goes back to poland-how can hw then expect to live within his averasge income again?

its just that i have heard people say- the polish come to england to earn their money they go back home-to what?- is it just boastful to have a bigger house or something?
