News / ARE POLISH PEOPLE TAKING OUR JOBS OR DOING OUR JOBS??!! DISCUSS. [126]

Thank you Wroclaw guy, my sentiments exactly on most of your comments, particularly your final point about over stretched resources, that i as a tax payer am funding...Yet when i am made redundant etc etc, getting benefits to help me is a mission, yet foreigners seemed to get handed it on a plate (or so it would appear).

Also, in answer to your comment about my work....Insolvency Practitioners, indeed do charge a high amount per hour...Look at the work they are in, their fees are dependant on what money can be recovered....they need to make there fees account for that scenario. You opinion of the job being boring is your's and i can understand how some people find it boring. I on the other hand enjoy reading English Law and the Insolvency Rules to understand better the law on Insolvency. and just to correct you, we actually recover money for creditors from most often rogue directors of companies....We are not stealing from creditors, but merely trying to recover money for them. As I say though, your opinion is your opinion...I would invite you to work with me for a week to see what kind of work we actually do and how much time and effort it does actually take.

Actually delphiandomine, I know Russians, and Poles through my POLISH boyfriend and they got help from the local council straight away, as soon as they cry poverty...So, I am educated enough, and eyes wide open enough to see how "lying" can get you everywhere apparently. (That goes for English to). Thats another matter though..I hate benefit bungees...Probably because I have been bought up to respect money, respect what I have and work for what I have. I am not saying everyone should not get benefits, I am saying the people who do it on purpose to avoid work.

So your 12 months of work history...I think is "pants" basically, because i have witnessed in person the russians and poles claiming poverty and claiming through the local council...Please explain that one should you dare?????

My opinion is....Sorry you're life is so sh*t back home in your own country, but please, respect our country, and respect that you can't be money grubbers over here....If you don't like our ways, our culture etc etc etc, then OFF YOU GO!! The amount of hassle we get from polish and other foreigners in incredible, then we get accused of being too hard, not politically correct, or racist....Well...tough, get over it, dont come here.... NO foreigners should be allowed to claim benefits here in my opinion, unless you are a BRITISH citizen. America got it right, either become a citizen or get a sponsor to say they will support you, should your money turn to sh*t whilst living here.

Well delphiandomine, sorry for my late reply....However,

For your information, I have a very good job where I educated for it. I work in Insolvency, this is actually a very reputable job...Not just a job in call centre, or a "debt recovery" office, but I mean a top Insolvency Practitioner Firm.

Now based on that, I STILL do not live an exuberant life....I have a flat with a mortgage, i DO NOT have a plasma tv, DO NOT have a game console, and DO NOT have any of the other luxuries...Why, cos I don't want them, and I don't have money to buy them....Why don't I have money to buy them?? - Cos my money goes on bills...Just like Shelley has already told you.

I am a harding working citizen and like Shelley says, you are confusing chavs who have not done a days work in their life, to someone like I who has worked for every penny I have....and its still not enough to lead a DECENT life. I live from month to month, even on my GOOD wages.

So, in summary, if we want a decent life, then we can have it...We do have a right to that, and I do work hard for it. So quit being so obnoxious and catergorising everyone in the same boat as apparently what you believe to be "correct".

I am not a chav, and I am not a high flyer, but I am educated and STILL DO NOT lead a life of luxuries, even on money above the minimum wage.

It's alright for foreigners to come here and go on benefits though aint it....and support all their family here, and send our economy money back to their country to help family there....Why should us decent tax payers be paying for that?????? - In summary, if we didnt have all the scroungers (English and Foreign) us educated people would have more money to live on. Instead we have to fund them claiming benefits in OUR COUNTRY.

Sick and tired of political correctness....The Australian president got it right....If you don't like it, pack your bags and go back to your own country....It's our country and what we think and feel is our right, its our society, not yours.

I think Shelley's estimate is about right on what is spent, maybe even more...

Oh, I have a Polish/American boyfriend, who lived in Poland for quite some time....He hates them, bar the occasional few...he says they are arrogant, rude obnoxious, and think they are something when they are not...I have to say, since being with him and meeting them, the majority of them are just that. Some are lovely though.

And are they taking jobs, yea they are, but frankly they are jobs we don't want, and as people have rightly pointed out, they are jobs English can't live on, not because we want to keep up with the Jones', not because we are spoilt...But purely because WE CANNOT AFFORD TO LIVE decently if we do those jobs....Its our economy, and the ratio of earnings to living that make us need higher paid jobs....

And anyways, if people have such a problem with Brits and what we are like...Then I think you know what to do, the next plane or boat leaves in the next hour......
