I cannot recall me writing that "Rusian programmers are working longer".
Let me help you:
Anyway, I personally prefer to work with the Russian developers - they seem to be more reliable, are usually less expensive, and do exactly what I need (without taking shortcuts to make their work less time-consuming -- like Polish designers sometimes tend to do)
...
I don't know how much the Russian programmers charge at home, but I know they usually charge foreigners less than the Polish programmers.
But at the same time you`re saying that:
I had the same situation like hanke. I'm Polish living in Canada. I do web design. Whenever I try to hire a Polish graphic company to do a project for me - I feel like I'm getting ripped-off.
- and just like hanke (who still hasn`t provided the NAMES of those terrible companies), you feel that way cose according to you those Polish companies that you`ve delt with are charging less at home than they charge foreigners.
Now I see.. a little conflict here.. cose as I understand from what you`re saying it dosn`t matter to you if Russian companies are charging more from foreigners than at home - and it looks as if you`d really liked it - but it`s bad if some Polish companies do the same - which is the reason why you`ve mady your first post... T`d say it`s a little bit strange - and it looks more and more to me as if`d be trying to sell here some kind of bullshit.
(by Russian I mean: Russian, Ukrainian, Belarussian, Estotnian, etc.).
There is huge difference between Russians, Ukrainians, Belarusians and Estonians...
