News / Poland's budget problems = Polish funerals [27]


But do you think the Government agencies would put the time and effort into searching for the EXACT person ect. CSA at the moment is far too busy searching for British Fathers and mothers rather than chasing up ones from abroad. Not that I agree with it at all.

News / Poland's budget problems = Polish funerals [27]


I'm not so sure. I know of a few Polish workmates here that have children back home. But I don't think (going by what they are spending here) that they pay anything towards their children back home. I think its down to the other parent to inform the Polish version of CSA, but even at that, im guessing it would be near damn impossible to locate the other parent abroad.

Life / WHY DO POLES USE ENGLISH WORDS IN CONVERSATION? [396]


Actually the Irish English and British English are more the hybrids of the English Language. American English is truer to the 17th-18th century English in that it is not so progressive.

I would say Poles use a lot of English in Polish due to it appearing more Western under Commie times, plus actually there are a few expressions that are just easier to say in English.

History / Poland - Scotland, the untold story... [75]


They get paid the same as any other UK worker doing the same job. And if they accept lower wages then it is to compete, but that is the Poles problem for accepting the lower illegal wage.


And no, 99.9% of the Poles I know here dont.


A life on min wage in the UK is far better than that of min wage in Poland so I dont know where you get that info from.


So now you are slagging of intelligent Poles who work here in many different jobs such as Accounting, Finance ect? In your own words Poles can only be toilet cleaners...

Jesus Christ mate, you haven't got a clue...

I have asked you this question many times...ever lived in Poland? or the UK for that matter? Ever plan to move back to Poland or are you another sh1t spouter who says "I will wait for Poland to become great again before I leave to move back".

If you think life is soooo great in Poland, then why the hell are you still in the US?

History / Poland - Scotland, the untold story... [75]


Not really, most of the Poles in the UK and those that work for me are students, who take a year or two out to experience living in a new country and to save money for their Uni fee's. "Free education" is a laugh in Poland. Yeah you might get your course work paid for you, but ur bursary hardly even covers a quarter of your living fee's. Other Poles who stay more long term are here because there simply isn't any work in Poland or that the wages are too small for their level of education.


Why not, it's better than staying in a country where you work for a pittance struggling to get by. Are you seriously saying that someone should live in poverty? and that someone shouldn't move abroad to further their career?

Feedback / The image of Poland according to PolishForums [90]


I think so, at least you can find the good and bad things about Poland via some members. The history threads can be a bit misleading though.


I think the forum here isn't to create any image of Poland, but rather discuss what is happening in Poland and around via the views of it's members.


I found it after I moved to Poland, I will return to settle in Poland for good at some stage :/


Pretty much the same. A lot of thread are bombarded with posts that have no relevance to the way of life in Poland what-so-ever. But you can spot them a mile away.


Yes, sometimes, but it makes the forum fun:)


Sometimes it can be a bit hostile to newcomers, but once they push through that wall everyone is generally accepted.

Geeez, If some people actually spent time on working on their relationships rather than asking dumb questions about it and asking other strangers opinions on it, then....just maybe...they might not have these problems...Sometimes i think some people deserve a big slap across the chops :/

I think the manufacturers build some kind of virus in them so they will stop working after a few months, then we need to buy new ones. I believe this especially true with laptops...I have had about 4 in the past year :D

Fake deary ;)

Prices will always be what the populace can afford. If electronics are overly expensive then it means hat many people are buying them at those prices.

Some things are expensive, other things are cheap. I've never seen so many people with brand new state of the art mobiles in Poland than anywhere else.
