I'm quite sure it is impossible yet... of course technically with some hacks, much $ to spend it can be done, but that's another thing.

Life / Polish hooliganism in sport [141]
Polish hools = people which have too much time and don't know what to do with it.. mostly with low IQ.
btw, but last movies I saw about hools (not Polish ones) were quite good, I mean Hooligans (2005) or Football factory (2004).

News / EU or America - which country is better to work now? [56]
No... most of young people prefer going to EU. It's much cheaper to get there and if sth go wrong you can easilly (at least in most cases) get back to Poland. You can make good money here in Europe, especially when comparing to USA while dollar is so cheap... Polish people still need visa if they want to go to USA, and if they want to work, some company from USA have to send them invitation.... there is so much paper work. All in all EU seems to be better choice for young people.
10 or 20 yrs ago - many, now.... I think that would be <10% of young people who want to leave Poland.
Yes, part of my family... they moved ~15 yrs ago, they live there, some are doing just fine, some aren't....

You're right... but there are fields where some of well-educated Polish people prefer to stay in Poland. For example someone which CCIE cert + experience (IT) can earn in USA 100-120k $ / yr. The same guy in Poland will earn 'only' 60k $, but costs of living in Poland are still lower than in USA, so all in all there are people who decide to stay here.
I believe that well-educated Polish people can do very well in the States.

That's one thing... but even when there will be no visas EU countries will be more attractive, because you can make there similar money and they're much closer to Poland.

I don't know how about UK, but it's quite easy to start IT business even in Poland. You just need a good idea, because there are so many IT companies that it's really hard find something new, something that people will buy or use and you make money on it...
Many companies from EU move to Poland their factiories, offices, because it's cheaper to run business here than for example in France. It's not so bad, but always it could be better (lower taxes and such things).
I'ts really easy to start up a business here in the US....especially an IT solutions consulting business. Is there really all of this opportunity in the UK?

Law / What do Poles think of Chinese products? [49]
The thing is there is thousands of products manufactured in China all over the world... I think that most things that typical European/American own were made in China. So... when even a few things are low quality and someone see that they were made in China she/he thinks that your products are not worth spending money on. So the real problem is quantity of Chinese products ... they're just everywhere. My 0,03$....
Think they are not in good quality. Is it really?

What's wrong with that? Some Polish companies use Gadu-Gadu to contact with customers... it's especially often seen on Allegro where they sell their goods. btw, I have nothing to do with them, but in this case at least they have web site beyondtel.com
And you use a hotmail msn account? Hmm

I know that using for example yahoo/hotmail mail account instead of one in company domain is sth unproffessional, but using IMs I wouldn't consider as a bad practice.
btw, msn and gadu-gadu are IMs, a bit different, but still IMs.... so why company using gadu-gadu is ok, and one which use msn isn't
Well, in some cases there is sales department and salesmans should have full access needed to communicate with other companies, including IMs.
Bubba, he has proff email, take a look at it.
I think that in this topic he gives msn just because he want to talk on IM...
it will damage your credibility - and gadu gadu isnt the same

How about a lot of corporate firewalls blocking the use of hotmail to stop their employees spending all day nattering to their mates.

using a generic email account and wanting to appear anything more than a very small operation is not a wise move... if you are part of a larger company, as the OP is claiming, why doesnt he have a company email
