Life / Differences in Polish, American and British mentality [237]

they all kind of blend in, sometimes i don't even know i'm speaking with a Polish-American or a Pole...

People who come from Poland don't tend to see the difference but citizens do. The same when a foreigner comes to Poland, he can be spotted a mile away. Polish people stick out by the way they look, the way they dress, the way they walk, talk and behave.

When Poles come to America, their mentality is: "I came here to make money", "I am in America so I am better than everyone else", "I know how to do everything", "who can I cheat now and how to get more money". Yes, there are many nice Poles, but their mentality is greed and pride to show off that they have more and are better than everyone else.

When Americans come to Poland, they visit the country, find their roots, they are interested in the history of Poland, culture, food, etc. Poles on the other hand say negative things about America and it's culture, that our food is no good and that we are stupid and fat.

Poles mentality is that they are always better than everyone else

Do the McDonald's fast food restaurants in Poland have Shamrock Shakes?

USA, Canada / Can Polish citizens with US greencard travel to Canada? [63]

yes, you are right. I am talking about a permanent US resident not a permanent green card resident

I think it should be permanent US citizen not resident who doesn't need that green card.

USA, Canada / Going back to the Old Country of Poland after more than 25 years! (from USA) [249]

Please help me imagine the changes I will experience upon my return.

You were there when the martial law begun so you probably remember how the food was rationed, the long lines for toilet paper, empty stores and nothing to buy. Life has changed drastically in Poland, people can own private businesess where before it was very uncommon, stores are well stacked, food from other countires is available, many restaurants with good food, no 5 hour lines for meat and many positive changes. Except for one. People still don't smile and always look mad.

USA, Canada / Not everyone that lives or comes from America is RICH! [300]

Because one day you'll end up riding your bicycle everywhere. Along with grubas.

He's not even close being American. That would be a disgrace.

He,he I knew, you are jelous.

Jelous about a truck? Sounds like Polish mentality here. We all have one because we need it, not because we want it.

Life / Support wanted to stop the sale of live carp in Poland [74]

Poland is a civilized country so why assume barbaric acts like this? we don't sell live fish to be eaten in America, if so PETA would be all over you. These fish are taken home by the Poles and thrown in a bathtub and nobody cares how they die. It is cruel and stupid. Many people don't know the first thing about animal care and here they take one home only to be eaten a few days later. Don't they feel any remorse, any bonds with this animal while under their care? How do they kill it? Who kills it? With what?

Like I said, Poland is a civilized country...so I thought

USA, Canada / CULTURE SHOCK! (of my Polish finance who visited the US) [210]

Her comment on that day was much briefer: "what a dump".

your daughter sounds like a spoiled brat, she's better than everybody and doesn't appreciate the beauty of a "dump". Life is too short no matter whre you live, to one person it's a dump, to another paradise. It all depends how you look at it.

News / Why is Poland developing so slowly or in the wrong direction? Who is responsible ? [317]

I'm asking about the cause not the result !

The cause was opening up borders for Poles for free travel, their mentality that the grass is greener on the other side, their character, always complaining about everything, their negative attitute towards people of other nations. Poles think they are the best and cannot take a comment and get upset when someone views their opinions.

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

come on if you are a native speaker you must be a retard !

Yeah dude, be happy Poles don't get visas, there's more retards like me here.

me off that Poland is exuded from free visa when all the country's of the region are in

Why don't you learn proper english before posting on here so others can understand. Every sentence you write has grammatical errors. Poles don't bother to learn english when they come here because they just sit around the Polish sections, work illegally for other Poles and they sit here 30, 40 years and never learn the language. You sound just like one of them, you think you know english yet every sentence is full of gramatical errors and you expect others to understand you and your twisted logic.

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

Well, you can do it but there should be the same treatment of USA citizens on Poland's part !

US had visas to Poland which were abolished in April of 1991. Poland was losing tourism because of it and many illegal Poles had trouble getting a visa back to Poland and were afraid they would get caught, causing more Poles to stay here illegaly.

I'm just angry when I read about some granny who cann't visit her grandchildren,

Why don't the grandchildren visit their granny? Is it because they are here illegally and afraid they will get caught? Why do poles always blame America when they can't visit, coz the family that's here won't go to Poland?

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

Money send by Poles from abroad is a considerable amount, and it improves all statistical and real economical situation of the country! So, they don't give a shite if those monies are from Poles in USA, UK or the Moon, also emigrants means less unemployed and more work places

Typical Polish thinking. Why do Poles always want to emigrate somewhere? Why don't they do something for their own country?

I must say that for born and breed American for a few generations, your English is positively dreadful, are you a retard or semi-illiterate ?

Lol. Duh, we all fat retards here so why Polaks all mad about not getting a visa? They will get the "Amerykańska Zaraza". Go back to school and learn better english yourself because you make no sense with your stupid, immature comments.

It is Poland who is restricting the visa to US, because they do not return and Poland will be left empty. But of course, they gotta blame America for their dishonesty.

as for others preachers if your ancestors emigrated after 1921 you better shut up !

No, you better shut up coz my ancestors came in 1800's from Europe and yes they were legal.

Admitting in the VWP others country's of the region and excluding Poland is insulting as hell!

Lol, Poles always feel left out and insulted no matter what. You give them an inch, they take a mile and unfortunately, many are not honest.

you're absolutely right. i'd say about........10% are "bad".

Haven't found a good Polish worker yet.

Travel / Which cities in Poland are nice to visit [80]

Lublin is beautiful, Częstochowa, basically every little town in between is interesting to see, the architecture, the castles, ruins, churches, the scenery never makes it a boring ride. Zakopane is incredible, take a ride up the Gubałówka.

The only thing I find disturbing in Poland is that there is garbage everywhere. By the roads, in towns, there are papers laying around, cigarette butts and other garbage making Poland looking dirty. There are regular cleanups but many people still don't care.

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

Im glad for US Visa restrictions! Maybe someday Poles will learn how to obey rules and laws

Exactly, Poles come to America and install their own rules instead of following the rules of this country, then they wonder why Americans don't like them. They are known as lazy drunks, they don't want to just work anywhere like cleaning toilets because "they are from Poland, they should get a better job than Americans". Women work as nanny's, clean "domki" or work in bars and guys do construction, but they are so bad at it that everything has to be redone over. They put switch plates in upside down, don't know how to use a blower, connect wiring wrong, etc, they know nothing about US construction but lie to get a job, then they get fired because of their inability and blame America for it. The illegal Poles are lowering the standards of construction, lowering rates causing hard working knowledgable Americans to lower their rates or push them into foreclosure.

The problem with Poles lies in that they will not return when visas will be dropped and they don't understand that they will not be able to adjust their status, or marry a US citizen to become legal because no lawyer will legalize such a viza and there will be an influx of illegal Polish citizens lowering the standards.

Poland is doing everything to please the USA...and you still need visa....

Polish mentality. USA is pleasing Poles by giving some a tourist visa but they don't return, so don't blame the US for it, blame the Poles who don't return like they are suppose to, ruining the chance for other Poles. Too many don't return, Chicago is overburdened by illegal Poles and there has to be a limit as to how many don't return, other nations who don't need a visa return to their country, but not Poles.

USA, Canada / Getting a VISA to USA by a Polish person nowadays [339]

Znieśmy wizy dla Polaków! Już najwyższy czas!

No, that would be a disaster! With so many Poles overstaying their visas, not following the rules, not obeying their visa requirements the US would be overflooded with illegal Poles and when they'd get deported, they would blame America for deporting them, when they should have gone back in the first place. Unfortunetely the Poles are doing this to themselves by not obeying the rules and the ones that overstayed their visas are ruinuing it for others.

We need more police with phaser guns.
