Life / Ukrainian/Russian community in Wroclaw [6]

Another question that somebody told me that Poles don't like people who talk russian so I should not talk in Russian, especially, with young people in Poland, is it right?

No. We don't like Russians. We know that a lot of people from Ukraine speak russian language. Only Ukrainians from Lviv and western Ukraine speak ukrainian.

How to spot Russians easily? They took parking places for persons with disabilities near Auchan, Carrefour, Lidl and Biedronka.

Law / Roof Access in Poland - what is the law? [9]

can anyone access the roof?

If building is yours, no probem you can put a padlock. If it is spoldzielnia, padlock and keys in spoldzielnia.
No one will cut the padlock. No one will mess with spoldzielnia. If wspolnota padlock and keys in wspolnota.

If else you may have a problem.

If you want to buy a mobile phone, touch it, play with it and not hear even once a word deal or plan in Poland you go to Carrefour, Auchan, Media Markt, Neonet, Euro AGD with zillion phones. Where to go in the UK?

Classifieds / Help finding forestry workers from Poland in UK [5]

but when we found out what the agency was paying them we were horrified. The Agency was taking 80% of the rates we were giving.

Almost all agencies are thieves and parasites. You didn't know it?

Could anyone suggest a place where we could advertise

It depends on job location Londynek.net, Moja Wyspa

keyword pracownik lesny

UK, Ireland / Polish migrants fight to sleep in toilets overnight in London [11]

A rather hilarious story from the Evening Standard in London. It concerns Polish migrants in London

A rather an old cutlet but I'm curious who put so much effort to spread this sheet (newspaper not story) all over the city? Day by day wasting piles of paper on crossroads, printed in the night. And why people read newspaper here so eagerly. Are they tamed that well?

What is like when a good honest British citizen is born? First goes a hivis vest, then cup of stinky Costa, then a newspaper and finally a good honest British citizen ;)

Work / Dutch translator job Warsaw- salary? [21]

Why I have no slightest problem with expressing salary that I'm happy with. I want 12-14 pounds per hour. So if you plan to relocate to Warsaw you will need at least 5000zl pcm. Think how much you would like to earn in Warsaw and say it?

UK, Ireland / Polish smugglers caught and jailed [10]

cigarettes are very expensive here in the UK, so I buy them from a local grocery store that has them smuggled from Poland

You may politely advice him that cigs smuggled from Lithuania and Russia are even cheaper. They have "kurenie ubivaet" on the pack.

Work / Information about jobs for Indian students in Poland [286]

Are there good chances of getting employment in IT even if I would not be knowing good polish?

I think no one will expect that you be able speak Polish at all. They hire you because of your IT not language skills. No one will wait for your Polish improvement. IT guys usually speak perfect English.

My question is that will I get enough paying job initially within 3-4 months so that I can survive there.

Why are you asking us? Ask your future employer. Everything above 5000zl netto will help your plan come true.
