USA, Canada / Expat Poles swearing allegiance to the US - how did you feel? [157]

That is the key word you should be looking at whether legal or illegal this country has a problem with immigrants and surely doesn't need any more of them.

I agree and I think you should leave since you are part of the problem.You are not even US born American you freaking scum and you dare to b i t c h about immigrants,give an example and leave.

Cut the personal stuff, please.

Poland and America are like best friends,

Haha hahaa boo hahaaa OMG hahaaaa boo haaahaaaa.Oh boy.

domestic enemies.

That's the part I don't get,I simply can't make up my mind who the domestic enemies are.And the locals are not very helpful either,some say the enemies are neocons others say the enemies are libs,I also heard Wall street bankers are enemies and some say Unions members are enemies.I guess I will stay neutral.

Work / English tutoring help - do we need the TESOL certificate to work in Poland? [33]

probably is, but sure if he's only 22 and gonna be in Poland for a wee while it's not like he'll need a ton of cash just enough to keep him in beer and grub.

Not probably,he will have a very hard time to survive on this salary.

Although I know some people here who do it and then earn ok money

What's ok money?Someone I know very well (Polish person but speaks 3 tongues fluently beside Polish) was offered this job in Poznan.The salary is 2000PLN before taxes (makes 1600 net) and they wanted him to pay them 2000PLN (training cost) if he quits within a year.These people are fuking nuts,I guess Indians in India make more than that.Anyway, he did not agree.

USA, Canada / What are the odds of my girlfriend getting a USA tourist visa? [70]

delphiandomine: even if she gets the visa, she still has to convince the border guard to let her in - and they're not going to do that with someone who has "vague" plans.
rubbish.

Not really.She doesn't have to convince immigration officer BUT they still have the right to refuse her entry WITHOUT giving a reason.Valid visa does NOT guarantee entry to the US.

News / Which modern developments harm Poland? [83]

Ive met lots of them in Poland, all the talk but still living in a small flat with a mediocre car. It is what it is, thats one of the reason ive come to despise capitalism.

What you don't understand is that during "communism " times it was (and still is) much better for you not to show off.I know a guy easily worth 10 milions PLN and he is driving 95 VW Passat and when you ask him how is he doing he will tell you that he is not doing good at all.

Language / An email translated from Polish to English using translator [24]

That would be a different word, 'Panowie', you clot.

Ever heard about misspellings punk?

talk about having to learn better polish.. gentlemen is not correct in this context at all

Yea, you should learn some Polish.This email speaks about person other than the recipient of the email.

Pewnego dnia byłem na szkoleniu, na którym byli również przedstawiciele małych branżowych firm.

How did you come up with "YOU"?Seems to me you don't know how to put together a simple sentence in Polish.

"Jednym z nich był Pan, który szukał pomysłu, a może raczej recepty na to, kogo powinien zatrudnić."
WTF is this?It says that SOMEONE was searching for an idea.Now look how this sentence should be put together if the author means "YOU".

"Jednym z nich był Pan,szukał Pan pomysłu, a może raczej recepty na to, kogo powinien zatrudnić."
Get it?If not go back to school.

One of them was yourself, looking for ideas, and in fact maybe guidlines about who he ought to recruit.

You gooks need to learn better Polish in the DPRK.

Jednym z nich był Pan, który szukał pomysłu, a może raczej recepty na to, kogo powinien zatrudnić.

"Gentlemen" should be used.

Hope that's useful.

No it is not useful.

Don't assume I'm Polish.

I don't but I am sure we give bilions of $$$ to your country(whatever it is) too.

Remember - and this is very relevant to the thread - that in the boom and bust economy that is the US, oil supply is everything. Without a guaranteed supply at a price they can afford, some of those communities that have little or no public transport had better invest in bicycles to commute all those miles every day.

Yea I knew you are a America hater.You hate our American way of life,don't you?I know you are jelous because we drive big a$$ SUV's not little euro econoboxes.Well, this is the American way life.

that's why the protesters on Tahrir Square wanted to get rid of him

You mean the guy who's just been forced out of office by popular demand

This is only because Egypt is still underdeveloped country and Egyptians don't know what's good for them.

Since when was Mubarak a democrat?! He's never been a democrat, not for any of his 30 years in power.

What do you mean he is not a democrat?America never supports tyrants but only democrats.Mubarak IS a democrat and also our buddy.

Now why do you do you think a heavily oil dependent country is "helping" countries in the most oil-rich region in the world? Altruism?

You kidding?What oil has to do with the help?We help because we are good people and always help less fortunate.
Oh I know, you guys must be liberal America haters.Well,guess what,screw you guys,you are not even American citizens.

These people want Bathist style socialism...

That's what I am talking about,they are obviously still to primitive to know that Bathist style socialism is not good for them therfore they need our help

cheehaw: and poles and everyone else with a hand out waiting for a handout from the USA.

What the heck are you talking about ?

What the heck are you talking about?Have you been living under the rock for the last 50 years?Over here (in the US) everyone knows that the World is still turning around only because America gives handouts to all other countries and stuff.We help everbody.Just look how we help Egypcians,without our help they could come up with some stupid ideas about who should run Egypt,but thanks to US help they have democracy and an awesome president.And there is more examples of our help,Iraq,Afganistan,Saudi Arabia,Pakistan and so on.$hit we even gave the whole $50k to Poland after the flood.We help even when someone don't need or want our help, so tell me what are you talking about?

USA, Canada / Moved back from Canada to Poland:). Here are the reasons why. [868]

Like you are not going to play American when you go back to Poland!

Why would I?To impress some dumb broads?I can do it as a Pole as well.See,I don't have any complexes regarding my nationality and I don't feel like I am worse than some American just because he is an American.(In fact I know for sure that I am way better and smarter than a whole bunch of Americans).So answering you,no I am not going to.

Life / Using heating oil in your car in Poland, what are the risks? [11]

just want to know what the Polish Law says about using non-duty-paid-fuel in your car, but thanks for the tip.

It says you can not do it.If they catch you will be fined and US will want you to pay the tax back.

Life / $3,000-$4,000 a month - would we have enough money to live in Poland? [273]

WOW !! ok the tickets have been purchased and we now have the date ! March 29th, 2011 we head out to out new life ! please wish us the best

Good luck.Good thing is that winter will be over (hopefully)when you arrive.

Like why do some charge rent and (going to spell this wrong) "Wysokość czynszu" and some do not?

Because "wysokość czynszu" or simply "czynsz" may change (read GO UP) ,not much but the person renting to you doesn't have anything to do with it."Czynsz" is what he/she pays to Spółdzielnia or Wspólnota for stuff like trash,repairs,elevators etc.Some include it in your rent,some don't.

4.35.

no point in betting here anybody can just not pay up.

Yea,I know but I will bet with you Boy.Gentleman bet.100PLN ,whoever is closer wins.

Real Estate / Do any UK banks offer mortgages for Polish properties. [37]

Seems" is superstition based on graphical trends,

It is (I said I looked at the chart) but I reached this conclusion after 5 min (I am not interested in GBP/PLN rate at all but if I was I would bet on 4.35 1 year horizon).Safe bet i think.Lets see.

Real Estate / Do any UK banks offer mortgages for Polish properties. [37]

The lowest ive known is 4.14 ish,

Well I just looked at 5 the years chart & it seems to me that GBP is heading back to 4.30-35 (If broken 4.10 area) though I don't know why.Just a thought.
