History / How things change - Poland 1989 [17]

Actually, ive just read that the European Court of Justice have ordered Poland to stop cutting down the forests

You know this is typical of people. These campaigners that complained about the trees being cut down are probably the same people that moan about the Polish economy and the lack of money generated by a lack of tourists. So when there is a massive plan to help boost Polands economy and roads, what do they do? They complain and stop it from happening.

Its people like this in our world that confuse me.

What about the Via Baltica highway?

Ive just googled that as I havent heard anyone mention it before. It looks like there were many protests about it because of the fact that its planned to pass through many areas of great natural value. However the Polish environment minister has agrred to the proposed route.

Actually, ive just read that the European Court of Justice have ordered Poland to stop cutting down the forests which were in the way of the propsed route. So now I have no idea what they are going to do.

History / How things change - Poland 1989 [17]

was in Bydgoszcz around about 1989

Improving? I was there over 3 years ago

Believe me, it could never really improve

If its so long since youve been there I dont think you can really comment on how it is here now. The same as I cant comment on Russia because I have not been there recently. Also, if Bydgoszcz was so bad then surely it can only improve yet you are saying in cant improve. Why is that?

dreadful roads

Roads are still a problem now because they are in the process of rebuilding the roads around the town. With 2 new entertainment centres to be built in the centre(one almost finished) they are going to need good roads so that it is easier for people to travel to these places.

Also the international schooling is very good in Bydgoszcz. There is of course an International house school with 20 native English speakers there.
There is also a bi-lingual school that is the best in the Kujawsko-Pomorskie region and is also the only one to run the highest qualification course in this area (dont ask me the name because I really odnt remember lol). In this school all lessons are given in English(science,History<maths etc) and there are students from Brazil, America and Africa all attending. This means is a mix of nationalities around Bydgoszcz which I think is important for the country as it will begin to make people more tollerant of different cultures.

UK, Ireland / Brit Youths Protest Anti-Gay Poland [114]

but they were being so provocative and i felt that march caused more damage to a very intolerant country

I think that is the case with quite a few of the gays(not allof them,I know). In one of my jobs there was a gay guy who used to sit at the lunch table and tell us all about gay sex acts that he liked to do with his boyfriend. It was sick, however when someone complained we were called homophobes. Another gay person in my previous job liked to kiss his boyfriend in the office when someone walked in and also liked to comment on males rears. I found this strange behaviour because if a male did this to a women they would probably lose their job.

Language / A Native American or a Native Pole: Who is better into which language? [116]

No, they are my words. For some people, investments, second homes ect can become an obsession. That is what I meant and that is what I said. Teraz, rozumiesz?

I know but in your original post you said' I agree'. I think L.I.R was curious who you are agreed with.

UK, Ireland / Unemployed due to Polish who work in the UK [126]

When I do my shopping we do it in silence as we do not want to advertise our 'polishness

Michal. Thats a little sad. Shopping is fun with the person you love. When I went shopping with my Ex we talked and laughed and I didnt care who heard that she was from Poland. I loved her and that was that. Dont worry about what people think. As long as you love her isnt that the most important?

Work / IT job market for none Polish speaker; planning to stay in Poland for 1 year. [13]

so are u saying its a bad idea to work in a support team if u dont speak polish? cuz ive been doing 1st and 2nd level support for the past 3 years and ive workd with the singapore government and also with one of the biggest multi-national company

Yes that is great support experience. Ask yourself though, how are you going to provide support when you cant explain anything in Polish? There are some companies about where you could still get work. For example in my town Torun, there is a Sharp office or production place. No idea about what they really do. Anyway there are about 100 chinese people working there who are staying in a hotel near me. I know they dont speak Polish because I heard them in the local shop. So its not impossible to find something but it will almost definately have to be with an English or American company.

You can quote peoples text by clicking with left mouse button and holiding it down then drag it across the text you want. Then click the qoute button in the top right hand corner of the post. Makes it easier for you :)

I second that opinion

UK, Ireland / Housing problem in England [13]

I some how don't think the people in Jersey would like that.

It could be done overnight. Or arange a massive festival and while they are all attending this , we could build some houses and ship the muslims in.

Life / Renewing my English passport in Poland [23]

??

So went to the embassy today and if you are applying for a UK passport outside of UK you must have someone sign it for you. Lucky I have a "friend" who lives very close to the consular office who was able to do it for me.
