Study / Would attending a Cosmetology school in Poland also allow me to work in the US? [9]

California is not "the USA". It's a whole different world.

Well said as California has more debt then any other State in the Union, has run out of fresh water in the southern half
of the State, is over run with illegal's stressing the welfare system's, hospital's, schools, have low information voters that have elected liberals that have handi capped them, it's on a time table for a major earthquake for half the State to fall into the ocean, you will have to learn to speak Spanish....................

I agree with D, would be my last choice for a place to live or try to get an education.
Best bet is to come to Texas where independence has not become criminalized.

Study / Would attending a Cosmetology school in Poland also allow me to work in the US? [9]

Because it is much more "economical" to go to medical school in Poland.
In my opinion Poland has a much better education system then the U.S. in the medical field.
It amazed me when a friend move here from Poland and registered her son in high school here.
He was three grades ahead of the students here in his math classes.
He was in 10th grade of high school and already doing U.S. junior college math.
That is why I tend to believe that Poland offers a much more aggressive educational system then the U.S. does.
All the Dr.'s trained here are into western medicine which is, "here, take these pills and if they don't work come back

in two weeks and we will try something else." (Cha Ching, cha ching $$$$$ next !)
That's all they know and that is why people with money in the U.S. are going to foreign countries to get their surgeries done.

Better foreign trained Doctors. (Look at Cuba, top healthcare in the world.)

Do none of the students go work in the USA afterward?

Yes as they can make a higher wage in the U.S.A. and also chase the quality materialism of the U.S.
That is why I suggested a cruise ship.
You meet wealthy people from many countries that can be a potential hook up to better the career you are seeking.

I disagree with you on this one D.
Being young there is a whole world out there to explore.

does anyone know if attending a cosmetology school here in Poland would allow me to work in the USA?

No, you have to pass the State Boards test first (which differ State to State) before you are allowed to practice in that State.
You have to be licensed by the State in which you work by taking their test and fulfilling their requirements.
Also may I suggest while you are doing your research on this to check on the requirements to work on a cruise ship.
I have a friend that makes very good money (tips) pampering old people with more money then they know what to do with.
He gets to see the world and meets some very interesting (wealthy) people that have connections for opportunity.
Being bilingual on a cruise ship should be a major plus for you if you speak Polish.
In fact both jobs you are seeking are available on those ships.
Just my thoughts on it.

Love / Polish from UK want to get married in Poland. Can the paperwork be arranged from here? marriage preparation? [24]

I wouldn't think the Catholic marriage classes required would be different from country to country so you could take them in the yUK.

The Uk priest could then write a statement confirmimg that he has given the instruction

Thank you for confirming that for us Roger as I thought Catholicism standards are practiced identically world around.

As for the civil side,

I would try contacting the local diocese to get answer for that one.

Can you go into details

Go badger someone else for an arguement.

Love / Polish from UK want to get married in Poland. Can the paperwork be arranged from here? marriage preparation? [24]

You may as well contact a British catholic priest in the UK he will be able to guide you much better on this issue than those people on the PF who are the priests of nihilism in this hotbed of atheism.

Catholic priests are most helpful when you are in a bind and no doubt MUCH more educated on the matter then the
Nihilism Priests here on this forum.
As you have noticed they offer nothing constructive to help you out with your dilemma, only insults.
I know many people from the U.S.A. that got married in Jamaica and all the paperwork was taken care of in Jamaica.
The United States government had nothing to say or do about it.
I wouldn't think the Catholic marriage classes required would be different from country to country so you could take them in the yUK.
Another place you might want to check is a travel agent that plans marriages and honeymoons in foreign countries.
They might be able to help you as they deal in such plannings and may have dealt with such an issue before.
Good luck and hopefully the posts in this thread that are totally off topic will be deleted and a warning issued to the
rude people that posted them.

Any advise /suggestions would be great! Thank you

Thank you for your constructive advise/suggestion Ziemowit as it may be possible that a priest from in the yUK may
possibly know since one of his jobs is to marry people.
It is also possible that he was in the seminary with a fellow Polish priest that he could ask.
I think it would be a good choice for a starting point as I haven't read anything better besides insults.

You do say the oddest things!

Law / Will traffic fines law like in Finland make Polish roads safer? [21]

In America usually when you go to court one can negotiate/plea bargain with the prosecutor to pay more fine for a non moving violation

I thought we were talking about MOVING violations (speeding) here to keep the roads safer in Poland.
And that is not true where I live, very very seldom is there room for negotiations on traffic fines.
If Finland sets fines according to income, does everyone still get the same amount of points ?
Like Roger stated, the fine was secondary, it's the points that get expensive.
Your insurance increases every time you get points for the following three years for everyone.
When you get enough points your drivers license gets terminated.
It's called forcing people to become RESPONSIBLE & ACCOUNTABLE no matter what your income is.
A person with a big income is just as likely to kill someone by breaking the law as a poor person.
Points is what levels that out to get ALL bad drivers off the road.

Law / Will traffic fines law like in Finland make Polish roads safer? [21]

The points were more of a worry than the cash

I agree with that Roger.
Does it work in Poland like it does in America where every time you get a traffic fine
your car insurance (which is mandatory) increases also.
After so many points on your drivers license you can't get regular insurance so you
are forced to join an insurance pool for bad drivers, if your license doesn't get revoked all together.
The cost there can be as high as $2500 a year for just the basic !

Travel / Most beautiful small towns / villages of Poland [49]

Most educational thread here yet.
Keep the posts coming on this thread as they are most helpful in planning visitors vacations in Poland.
The little details that you are including really help in deciding a route to take.
These small towns are the ones visitors find the kind of Polish culture that they are looking for.
They have not yet been 'commercialized' and have loads of unsung history.
Knowing of these off the beaten path towns by tourists will help pump some cha ching into their local economy as well.
Thanks to everyone's input here as it is a tremendous help for my planning.

Love / Want to ask a Polish girl out? [27]

I would approach her when business was slow and say to her, "Hi there, I have noticed you looking at me
and it makes me very nervous. Would you like to meet up with me after you get done work and talk for a bit ?"

Remember Jay, a closed mouth never gets fed.
Good luck & keep us posted with a progress report.

Love / Polish girls hard in relationships [156]

My girlfriend is very demanding. And i like that. Even because it helps me to improve myself everyday.

My Father told me those famous words when I started dating girls, "A woman can make you or break you."

Men must know to say NO. That`s it.

Right Crow and no doubt when bedtime comes you will hear your echo.
Women always remind a man when he demands that HE wear the pants in the family that she wears the panties.
Next see how her Father treats her, if he gives her everything she wants then she is going to expect her man to also.
If her Father expects her to work, have manners and show respect then she will be all broken in for you.

especially when she's nothing special to look at, I just think WHY?!

Maybe she is filthy rich or has an open minded knock out little sister.
The perfect woman would be, young and still trainable, be a polite hostess at the door, a good cook in the kitchen and a hot wh*re in the bedroom. :-)

Life / Polish people and racism. [943]

When you say that I should moderate my opinions, you exactly show how you belittle them. You think that other people's opinions which are incompatible with yours are rubbish? It shows only who you are.

Gee Harry, it seems those were my same exact words when I first started posting here. LOL
You go girl !

It is a fact that non-Muslim women are targeted by Muslims

Right on Haylel, how many times I have pointed out when Muslims post on here about, "I am looking for a Polish wife", that their full intentions are to breed them to convert them and the children to Islam. The MULTIPLY the world with Islam goal.

I was called a racist by the "Brit Boys Club" and then the thread was closed or deleted when I responded.
A 'race' is people with related ancestry which would make a 'racist' some one that hates that ancestry.
Islam is not a race, it is a religion so how can I be racist because I think Islam is a twisted warped religion because it's

Koran states that all infidel's should be killed in the name of Allah ?

Life / Polish people and racism. [943]

Well said Haylel.......I would like to elaborate on that.

I was thinking some of my comments could be understood wrong

We understand you just fine, you don't want to accept what we are saying.
The truth sometimes is sad.
We admit we are racists and have listed many reasonable reasons why we are.
It has nothing to do with where you were born, colour, ethnicity.
It has to do with "how you act", how you respect a country that you are a guest in,
how you don't try to force your religious beliefs on us with a do or die attitude,
treat others (including your own) with humanity, don't expect everyone to wait on you,
not living today with mid evil rituals, treat women with an equal respect, quit blowing up innocent
people, not going to a foreign country and expecting them to accept and start living a
culture that you left because your Koran tells you to rid the infidel's from Allah's paradise.
That is why we are racists is because we refuse to be intimidated, we refuse to give up
our religious beliefs, we refuse to start living someone else's culture because they
demand it, we refuse to move over and let someone else instill their values on us.
We don't demand that you become Christians.
Muslims get along with NO COUNTRY in the whole world, not even some of their own.
They contribute NOTHING to society but destruction and pain.
White countries not only get along with most countries, they feed most countries of the world.
The word racist is not a bad word as much as some want to use it for a crutch for their ills.
I will repeat myself again, "You forced me to become a racist".

Two more off-topic posts and this thread will be closed.

No it is not a rude stereo type, it is a fact with lots of statistics to back it up.
Those statistic are part of the reason WHY there is racism.
Your Polish father has seen it all his life and has good cause to not be happy.
His unhappiness is the pain he feels for your bad choice because he loves you, not him.

I am Polish woman with black boyfriend and I am pregnant too.

Yes, a Polish father would expect his daughter to be married before the baby was born.
Black male's don't seem to think that is importand and have six kids with six different women.
Maybe this is why there is Racism in Poland.

Life / Polish people and racism. [943]

Exactly, this thread is about Racism and how it does and will effect Poland in the future and "WHO" is the problem promoting the racism.

Our new arrivals from the Middle East, are not only killing us but walking on us, compliments of our Muslim president,
I mean why wouldn't someone want to come to welfare America where having six kids pays more in a month, without leaving their couch and t.v., then a good paying job does in Poland for a YEAR !

The Polish people's Roman Catholic beliefs hopefully will not let their country be ruined by a warped culture by having another religion forced upon them.

Ask Polish me one more time why I was forced into becoming racist.

Life / Polish people and racism. [943]

Oh Calmit I agree with you 100%.
Let me give you a couple of examples what is happening here in the "generous" U.S.
Muslim "imports" in Minneapolis are now demanding a tax-funde 'halalâ" non-pork food shelf at a free food pantry for the poor.
(As if it's not bad enough that nearly all the American Muslims who have joined ISIS have been Somalis from Minneapolis.)
Their relatives here are demanding that Americans adhere to the same Sharia Laws the Islamic State fighters are trying to impose throughout the Middle East.

Their arrogance and self-entitlement has to be unprecedented for a group on the public dole.
Welfare, schools, hospitals and social services have been crushed by the burden of immigrants who lack the most basic skills to live in a modern society.

They have to learn how to use toilet paper as they are use to using their bare hand.
Muslim cab drivers in Minneapolis have refused to take blind passengers with their guide dogs because dogs are unclean in Islam.
The refuse customers transporting alcohol in their cabs.
They came here taking advantage of American generosity (as they eventually will in Poland) and returned it by enforcing their own brand of Sharia Law upon us.

Each refugee already has access to the following:
Free food, free low cost government housing, free medical, free child care and $2200 for every man, woman and child per month.
AND THEY STILL DEMAND MORE !
In the public schools in America (thanks to the libs. and the start of the down fall to America) prayer has been removed from the schools.

Students can't read their bible's in school, wear a t-shirt with a christian logo, pray, ect.
Yet a school in Ohio, the Muslims DEMANDED that the school provide a room so their children could pray since THEIR RELIGION required it at certain times of the day.

Sad to say the school system caved and built them one.
In Detroit the Muslims have taken over a neighborhood and have their loud speakers BLASTING down the streets annoying (insulting) their adjoining American neighbors.
Even after the neighbors signed petions to rid the racked the Muslims won out.
Now you just watch it to start happening in England and France where they are deeply rooted.
This is not about being racist towards individuals personally, it is about the Koran and what it teaches them.

I see that in the post above yours.
Just because there are no bombs going off in crowded business centers,
"Honor Killings", nor killing of innocent children or anyone else in Poland yet
is the reason why you feel the way you do.

Merged: Reasons why some Poles are racist towards Muslims and Blacks

I am very interested in hearing from Poles and others for their reasons of being racist and prejudice
towards Muslims and Blacks.
It seems they are taking over the non christian countries first as they are easier to convert to their beliefs.
(That is their agenda to convert the world to Islam)
Poland is not infiltrated with them 'yet' because of the strong Roman Catholic population.
They want to come to the white Christian countries for a better life yet want to convert people once they get there to
Islam to be like what they just left.
Being White Chritian countries see that actions speak louder then words they don't swallow the propaganda that comes
with these people so in return become racists and prejudice towards their agenda.
Your thoughts please.

Life / Whats with going to sauna naked in Poland? [41]

I am in Canada and if you are trying to tell me that in US people go to sauna in clothes then you are full of it .

I live in the U.S and have never seen ANYONE in a sauna with anything but a towel on.
If someone came in and sat down with cloths on next to me in a sauna my first thought would be
that they must be there just for a little looks see.
But then again I am a puritan white boy.

Dont waste your time looking at US sites as the information is worthless

How authorative weeg.

Anybody struggling move to the UK for 6 months then declare bankruptcy

Oh, kind of like what people did with Freddie May so the U.S. sites information wasn't so worthless.

Feeling really stuck so wondered if anyone has been through the same situation or had resolved it. Any practical experience would be much appreciated.

The only difference is that I think it is seven years to get a clean record again in the U.S.

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]

I'd imagine that that would a Canadian who has one Polish parent and one parent from somewhere in the Caribbean.

So that would make her a mixed Canadian ?
A mixed Canadian should not fear racism anywhere in the world short of a Muslim country.

Water has no enemy.

It doesn't have any friends either. Almost all of us (in this country at least) take a dump onto water every single day, and that is not what one does to one's friends.

However fish do their 'deed' in it too and that IS what one does quite often with his/her best friend so that is another much nicer visual. :-)

Should I be concerned?

NO !

Life / Should I expect racism as a 'black' woman in Poland [149]

I'm a Polish/Caribbean Canadian girl

I am confused on that one. Could you be more specific ?

My concern is that I might experience some hardship due to racism.

Since you are black you should have nothing to fear of experiencing becoming a racist as only white people are racists.

I wear my hair in a big afro.

The days that was intimidating are long over, now it is just out of style.
When in Rome, do as Romans do.
That is what I tell my black friends from the hood when they come to visit the mostly white area that I live in.
Pull up your pants, turn your hat around, cover the vulgar ink and leave the hood slang at home.
Speak proper English so you are understood.
Have eye contact with a smile and if they use adult language don't get angry because you think they are flaunting their superiority.
You can't DEMAND repect, you have to earn it.
Act as a guest in any foreign place having manners and respect and you will get the same in return.
I still am puzzled to what a Polish/Caribbean Canadian is though ??????
