[quote=Havok]Do you hate blacks as well, they tend to shop at walmart a lot too and also Polish immigrants favor it because of all the discounts they offer.
I am only pointing out that marketing for Jews in Poland is a recipe for financial disaster.See,70 or so years ago there was a holocaust or something like that (I don't know the details) in Poland and all the Polish Jews dissapeared somewhere.
And what's wrong with pointing out that someone is a Jew?I thought you guys are proud to be Jews.Your comments are anti semitic and if I didn't know you are a Jew I would think that you are some kind of Nazi or something.

The whole tax breaks and subsidy thing is just ridiculous.Couple of years ago Opel (GM) demanded subsidy from Polish taxpayers to keep Gliwice factory open.I read somewhere that they wanted 1 M PLN per 1 workplace.No żesz kurwa go mać.Am I supposed to pay them for a "privilege" of working?Get the **** out.Luckily ryży chuj Tusk didn't give them any money.

Yeah,all these minimum wage jobs.Meanwhile all the profit is being transferred out of Poland.Not to mention that they don't pay any taxes in Poland.How the **** can Poles compete?******* "polish" government crooks opened the market for foraigners when we did not have enough capital to compete with them.Anyway, when in Poland I only buy at Polish stores and only Polish goods and everyone calling him/herself Polish should do the same.
Think about the amount of people they will hire in Poland too.

Food Lions are ok but Harris Teeter and Giant stores are MUCH nicer though a bit more expensive.
I don't think so.What's special about Wal Mart?I haven't been at Wal Mart for like 2 years already and I don't miss it.Food selection is poor and the prices are not any lower than Food Lion.
I like shopping at Food Lion or Lowes Food

Poland will love Wal Mart, especially if they can get in on those super low prices. Wal Mart is great for a place that doesn't have a lot of extra cash.

The highest was 1USD-4.8 PLN.The exchange rate matters a lot because you pay for the program in PLN.One thing is that the wages and job market in Poland has indeed improved but another thing is that Polish student can work a summer job in any of 27 EU countries without having to spend any money on a program and like I already said it is not French fries money but thousends of USD.
What was the exchange rate before that?

Partially but mainly it was a cheap USD.I mean in august of 2008 the exchange rate was 1USD-2PLN so a smart student could make the same money in Poland (not to mention UK or IRL) without having to invest 3000USD.
Maybe our economy and job market was the problem that changed things.

Is it really?Never happend to me to be honest with you.I would rather bet that you misunderstood something.When I was driving a taxi I had plenty of Americans thinking that I am trying to overcharge them when I started adding surcharges at the end of run.Finally the town gave us stickers with all charges to place inside the cab and they could read what I am charging them for.
Yes, the things has changed.It used to be worth but it's not anymore.There was also a problem with a job placements,meaning that not every of these students had a work place guaranteed and many couldn't find any job (especially when the season was bad or haven't started yet),if you look up the internet you will find these stories.
being charged more than what we should pay for whatever we ordered

the summer job situation in Poland was much worse, as were wages, so it made coming here worth it.

I am not holding it against anybody,I am merely stating a fact.I can understand the average American has not enough contact with any of these nationalities to catch the difference in accents and look.
It's the same in western Europe too but you can't hold it against anyone, no one learns Polish at school other than in Poland.

No,it is simply not worth it if you want to make some money.The cost of program is about $3k so you are starting -$3k,how long do think it takes to make it back when you are making $7-8/h?I agree there is still plenty of non EU students.
Maybe the Polish employment service shut down? I've seen a number of Scottish and Russians in CM too.

I only wonder how did he figure out they were Polish because from my experience (and I have a lot of it) 99.9% of Americans can not tell the difference between Polish and Czech,Ukrainian or Russian.
Not worth the hussle and it makes little or no sense financially.I am in Ocean City MD,Polish students used to coming here in large number few years ago along with Czechs,Slovaks,Hungarians and other students from former Soviet Union but it all stopped about 3 years ago.Now there are mainly Ukrainians,Belarussians,Russians and Turks but also some Irish (but they mainly party)coming here to work over the summer.I didn't meet any Polish student here over the last 2 years and in 2006 and 2007 I knew plenty.
I gave the owner a look he goes" They're Polish" i said so what I Polish too, he explained the whole story of them stealing.

Stop spreading lies you a$$hole.In PRL times my parents travelled not only to western and eastern european countries but also to exotics like Thailand,Columbia or Vietnam.In 1985 you could buy 2 weeks vacation in Vietnam for $180!And none of my parents was a prominent PZPR member nor had a family in the West,in fact my father was an ordinary PZPR member running private enterprise (soda manufacturing) and my mother was a teacher.Don't blame the system because you and your parents were losers.If they only had a hot dog kiosk at PKS bus station they would be able to afford exotic vacation too.
