Study / My experience in Poland (Poznan) as a student who recently moved from Syria [117]

Yeah, 10°C is survivable (we get around 8°C at night here in my city nowadays) but it's definitely not a comfortable temperature for my taste, since I'm such a zmarzluch :P I want my central heating... lol ;/

Ah, OK. One learns something new everyday ;)

So they started heating already, lucky you :) Then turn the heating down when it's too hot ;)


Well, I've been only to Europe so I don't know how it's like a bit more to the South :P So you have radiators in Syria? :P


;)

Oh, yes, jon357, let's hope he won't be so unlucky as you were! We wouldn't like dany to freeze to death, would we :)

OK, then you'll do just fine in Poland lol ;)


Yeah, and they're not heating in my neighbourhood yet :/ Btw, dany, if they're not heating in your dormitory yet (and I don't know if you have any need for radiators in Syria :P, so a piece of advice, just in case), turn the radiators to the maximum heating power because when the heating period will start they will be filled with water and they have to be turned to the max.

Did you and your wife reprimand the person hurting the dog?

From what I've read now on the net both the goats and the mechanism were exchanged (interchanged?) for new ones over the years, so obviously they aren't the original ones from 1551. So only the idea is hundreds of years old :)


And it's going to be worse, dany... Brace yourself, here's the whole truth about Polish seasons:

Drink some vodka, maybe then you'll survive (but not too much! lol) ;)

Yeah, I saw it on Youtube and to be honest I didn't get it why it's supposed to be such a "tourist attraction" lol


Ah, OK.


Um... o_O No, it isn't.

Study / My experience in Poland (Poznan) as a student who recently moved from Syria [117]


I do that too xD :P


Wow, cool.


True.


That's some people, not many enough to make such an impression on dany. I think jon357 is correct, European societies in general are getting older. Plus many Poles emigrated abroad (older people are less likely to emigrate).

Anyway, welcome to Poland, dany! :D Keep us posted and good luck with everything :)

Even on the internet there are some rules (written and unwritten ones) :)


Blue, it looks like I would have been a good candidate for a mod after all - I've just met another requirement ;D


LOL xD


You, local_fela, on the other hand, seem like a very interesting man, with many fascinating things to say (and you're definitely not repetitive, boring and chav-like) lol


Thank you, Harry...

News / Have You heard about legalizing 12-hour working day in Poland? [38]


A fragment of another comment:



It may look like a "badly needed change", but I'm afraid that in Polish reality employees that were exploited already will be even more exploited.

We'll see what it will look like, I guess.

So you were working 12 hours a day and you weren't getting money for overtime, Harry?

They said on TV it was 100 000 people?

One of the comments (translated by me) from under one of the articles from the links I've given:


Hence the protests, I guess:

Extend the reference period of time up to 12 months , changing the definition of employee day , lowering rates for overtime work - these are just some of the proposed government changes to the Labour Code . - We will work for 26 weeks in a row , 12 hours a day ! - Threaten trade unionists . Meanwhile, the Ministry of Wladyslaw Kosiniak - Kamysz has a few other ideas to make life easier for businesses affected by the crisis.

The government of Poland supported by the parent party - PO - and business organizations want to enter permanently into the Labour Code flexitime . The project approved by the parliamentary committee remarkable , and this week will be on the MPs to vote . What will change ? Each employer will be able to introduce flexible working hours . For example, on Monday an employee starts work at . 8 and Tuesday at 9 .

Parliament of Poland adopted an amendment to the Labour Code , which allows the employer to work flexible hours . Under the revised rules employee can work more than eight hours , and the employer does not have to pay him overtime , provided that during the 12 -month accounting period the company " give " to the employee the additional hours shorter amount of time in other time - writes " Gazeta Wyborcza."

Polson, you can do whatever you want, obviously, but personally I'd rather you didn't keep posting.
And I'd prefer if this thread died a natural death, tbh...

Could you, guys, relax somewhere else, please? There are appropriate sites and forums for this. The internet is full of those sites.
This is not a man-only forum and I'm really sick and tired of the way Polish women were treated on this forum some time ago and I really, really wouldn't like this to come back.

Dude, I'm not writing about glancing, I'm writing about your thread which is both idiotic and pathetic lol


I wonder, do you have a "normal" brain size? :D ;)
You know, why don't you become God and create women into your own liking lol
Or move to a country where women have bigger breasts lol I'm sure Poland and the small breasts won't miss you xD


True.


That's a truly revolutionary thing to say, blue... ;D I'm not sure if men are ready for that lol

And that's all I have to say on this subject, as I don't want to feed the troll anymore :)

Haha, młotek, yes ;) But "młotek" usually only means that someone is stupid (and usually young). "Burak" describes also general behaviour, lack of class - very low level, like bellow the muddy bottom of a lake ;)

Love / Polish girls- breasts size [65]


Then why don't you use the word "breasts" instead of "tits" and "tities"? This thread is idiotic enough without you behaving like a 14-year-old boy who has never had a close encounter with any o_O lol

I don't know how it's like in the Anglosphere, but here in Poland I can recognise a "burak" (let's say it's a Polish version of the word "chav") by him using word "cycki" instead of "piersi".

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]


Not my fault that it's called like this in English :P

Again, I have to ask, what land?
Is it land situated next to villages, fields?
Or do you mean land in the middle of nowhere or between cities where noone lives?
I'm asking because I still don't understand entirely what you mean.
I've visited a few countries in the West, as well as Slovakia, and other parts of Poland, of course. I didn't pay any special attention to the number of farms in each country, obviously, but I think I would notice if farms and pastures were popping up everywhere covering almost all land available o_O

You write about Bieszczady - it's a mountainous area, isn't? Soil in the mountainous area is of the poorest quality as far as the arable land is concerned.

My mum told me that the soil where my grandma lives is not the best too, it's sandy and there are many hills there. When it's raining the soil is going down the hill, everything is washed out and there your crops go. As you can imagine it isn't a rich area.


I have no idea who owns the land that isn't owned by anyone, my guess would be it belongs to the state.
As for leasing - I have no idea either, why don't you ask the government :P
Some of the land may be the property of national parks, especially in regions like Bieszczady, I imagine.
Sometimes you can also hear on the news that some ecologists say that there are endangered species of some insects, frogs, birds, otters, beavers, etc. and so from now on this land, meadow, swamp area, etc. is under protection and the surrounding land has to be under protection too.


People, Poland is years behind the West in many things so I don't understand why you think agriculture would be any different lol ;)
Of course, it's changing slowly, some farmers buy out lands and create bigger, modern farms, with modern facilities and equipment.
Of course, as usual, the problem may be money. Another problem, I suspect, may be the fact that many young people move to towns and cities. That's what my mum did and her two sisters. As you probably can imagine my grandma won't be modernising her farm and buying out land lol She had to sell all her animals except for chickens and geese, because she wasn't able to take after them anymore.

Another problem may be (but that's only my guess) is that probably it isn't easy to buy out lands because there are so many small fields that belong to different families and all of them may not be willing to sell their land. So it's rather pointless to buy one small patch of land here, and another over there, etc.

According to this article 80% of farms in Poland isn't bigger than 15 ha:


newseria.pl/news/beda_pieniadze_na,p1281522467

According to what I've read here the biggest complaints of small farmers (like the producers of cold cuts, sheep's milk cheeses, vegetable oils, juices and vegetables) are too complicated and unclear regulations, bureaucratic constraints and too few marketplaces:


senat.gov.pl/aktualnosci/art,5344,konferencja-male-gospodarstwa-rolne-szansa-rozwoju-rynku-lokalnego.html


And that's a good question, too, I suppose. Sometimes when we were going to visit my grandma in the countryside I would tell my mum: "Wow, what green grass!" and mum would tell me then that it wasn't grass, that it was young rye (or sth of this kind) and it simply hadn't grown yet ;)

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]


I live in Lesser Poland and I don't get it what you mean by those "tons and ton of empty land not being utilized"?

Are those lands around villages, fields? Or you just drive a road from place A to place B, you see grass and you think "empty land not being utilized"?

Is all land in other countries which is not cities and forests covered in fields utilized by farmers?
Sorry, but I'm not sure what you mean o_O


About what? He just writes that you can't make a big business out of a small farm. And there's plenty of such small "family" farms in Poland.


Then why don't you all just move to Germany? lol

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]


Dunno, for me it looks like everything is explained in that link.


Oh, I'm sure they do, but in the West, where payment is higher and the locals aren't too eager to do those jobs :)


Well then I'm not sure what you're talking about and my questions still stand:

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]


Um... It looks like it's explained in the link you posted...?


As babysitters, cleaning ladies, care takers and working in the fields in the countryside? I can already see all those EU citizens lining up for such work in Poland... lol

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]


What land exactly? And where is "here"? When I go from Kielce to the countryside to visit my grandma I see cows, horses and sometimes goats grazing on "empty grassland". The same is in my grandma's village. Every family owns a meadow or two and they leave their cows, horses, etc. to graze there for most of the day, then they bring them back to the stables before the evening starts (except in winter, late autumn and early spring obviously).

It's a common view in the countryside.
So what kind of "empty grassland" do you mean?
Is this land situated next to people's houses, their fields or sth that you think it should be used in some way?


Thank you, kind sir :)


Well, doesn't it mean something if Ukrainians and Belarusians are coming to Poland to work and not the other way around?

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]

JanK lol


JanK is right, that "empty grassland" is usually used as pastures for cows, horses, etc.

News / Premier says no recession for Poland [148]


Very true. I think many Poles could use some learning too. I've learned from Russians :)
