Study / Gdansk / Tricity; university - information [30]

Hi.

I am planning to apply for the University of Gdansk, faculty of International Business.

You mean this ?

ekonom.univ.gda.pl/wydzial/index.html?xa=ib

I checked the Polish version of their website and there isn't any schedule either but most probably there will be classes until 4PM (or even later) at least 1-2 days a week. This is normal in Poland.

Work / Software Jobs in Poland [31]

been so far 2 months looking for a job in PL and not even a single interview has came up!!!

Wehere did you send your applications to ? The reason could be the language. In vast majority of places without fluent Polish you've got no chances at all. You should try only these companies where the working language is English. There are some outsourcing centers like that, especially in KRaków, Wrocław and Tri-city.

News / GERMANS WANT TO GERMANIZE KOPERNIK (COPERNICUS)! OUTRAGE! [1016]

its obvious. Kopernik is Polish

True...

Sokrates, there is no evidence that this man ever spoke or wrote polish in his life at all,

One of the resons I'm sure the guy was Polish is stupid stuff like that you have to use to support the Germanic version... Polish written texts were hardly used in his times...

BTW Do you we really have to do this **** again ? Can't somebody bump the old topic ?

Genealogy / Why Polish aren't white?? [272]

It's generally Americans raised in the south of scottish and english descent who believe this.

But they aren't white themselves. They are pink.

History / Polish hatred towards Jews... [1290]

While the soldiers of the Scottish 51st Highland Infantry and the Polish soldiers under General Anders were busy fighting the Nazis in North Africa

Most of Jews deserted from the Polish 2nd Corps, when the unit was deployed in Palestine. Now they accuse the whole world at the very least of "not doing enough".

Genealogy / Adamek family research [10]

My dads family is from Koszerawa it's next to Zywiec.

Tomasz Adamek is from Gilowice, which is only about 15km away... there's about 8k people with that last name in Poland, so It doesn't have to be your relative but It's worth to check out.

Love / Scottish & Polish relationships [229]

Perhaps this entire Scot/ Pole intersection is the result of Polish girls going abroad to work and the Scottish men following them back to Poland? (How do Polish boys feel about this?)

I'm not sure about others but I cry every night.

News / Poland Should Beef Up Military [286]

But I wouldn't call that "nations", rather "tribes".

True.

(Isn't there a silesian movement for independence?)

No.

News / Poland Should Beef Up Military [286]

Isn't that sad? sniff

OK, sorry...

Isn't it always about "Germany - Poland - Russia"?

No... anyway you had a few decades of "glory" just like almost every European country at some point, now slowly going back to its place... the same with Russians, oil prices fall down, let's welcome again greater Moldova...

News / Poland Should Beef Up Military [286]

Don't try to sell us that you are a peace loving people

Who do that ? Kraut, stop making things up.

Your problem is only that most of your neighbours are by far stronger

We've got 7 direct neighbours. Which are by far stronger ?

Law / Irish welcome on Polish building sites ? [47]

Can anyone tell me if this is true ?

That's crap. One Polish owned construction company in the Northern Ireland did that... In Poland there's obviously no Irish workers looking for jobs, so even If there were such sentiments (but there doesn't seem to be) these signs would make as much sense as "Eskimos not welcomed".

Life / Tips on tipping in Poland [45]

Would like to know how much you would tip:

0 in most cases... Unless people are doing more than they should (for example you buy some furniture with free delivery but that mean they should just leave It on the sidewalk and that's It, however they help you move these thing inside...) most of Poles don't tip...

Law / DELL shifting ops from Ire to PL [30]

i wonder if they will give the option of relocating to some of the workers in limerick.

Maybe some from the top managment. For the rest It wouldn't make sense as they would be better living on benefits in IE. There's a reason why they are moving production to PL and let's be honest, that's not lower yearly rainfall.

Law / "FART" shop in Poland - WHAT DOES THIS SHOP SELL? [55]

Fart shop in Poland is not a problem, what is bugging me is the Norwegian lightbulbs company that sells its product with the original name (Osram) in Poland. I'm sure they had been informed what it meant before they started their business here.

True. There are also... Siku toys...
