UK, Ireland / Work in any office in England without any degree? [11]

First of all thank u all.
Absolutly Im aware that situation with job evrywhere is hard. I also understand that Bristish people can realy have enough all foreginers while alone looking for job.

I just asked abt chance cos I dont know alot abt job situations, expectactions from new workers in differents work's fields.
Now like i said i just want to go for few months to practice language n to dont loose this time, im not afraid any job. In march i must back here and finish study. When hv master i thik to move to Uk or maybe other cauntry. I dont want be another useless emigrant who only take money from goverments n pass time. I want also give something to this cauntry from my self. Irespect english people specialy this older generation thats why i think this cauntry its good idea but of cours till this time evryting can change.

Lol

Life / I got beaten and kicks in my face just cuz i dont look polish [205]


really? polish guyes doesnt protect polish woman. they only become more agressive start hates those women. Their behaviour and opinion was always aloust same. Most polish men hated and hate arabs or in general muslim ( avarage polish man dont knwo how to recogsnise indian /pakitani or even arab). Those women who married arabs even 20years ago was often called beaches. The very important things is that like always they critic those who they never ever so on their eyes. Fact is, now poles traveling more so they learn a bit but its wasnt nothing obvious before.

sorry southern it was my mistak but it hink not reazon yet to make problem !

Poland is from few years changing very much but those what alot of polish women passed with polish men many has no idea. I dont want talk generaly. Of cours in evry nation, amongst british or spanish or polish you can find good and bad people but polish guys its very specific people. From time i was child i see how hard alot of woman try to do evrything for man. They took all responsibility in home and out home. Works very hard in work and home and polish guys doesnt take it as smth good, they took it as normal situation. This is fact alot of polish women is all time busy to do smth and polish guys after work ( if they work first of all)are boring , alot of drink too much. Later they are going to other women cos "she was so boring, all the time unhappy, all the time busy and didnt look nice etc etc" but no of them thing they behav that n they look like this cos they do for them all things.

I dont was saund here like im just blaming polish men cos its not that, I see some people are also very good but i also notice that those polish guys who are very calm very easy, very caring r often such un-male ( lol idont knwo if there eist that adjective even).

In other hand what i dont like in polish guys if young woman go to arab for exmaple they all treat her as easy woman, but if any girl refuse them , or say so strange declaration for them :O :" like they dont want hv sex before marriage ' then also hasnt any respect andmostly dont even bother to have any contact with her.

You dont have to belive me. My intention isnt to change anybody opinions. Its just forums and we share our experiences and knowledge. Im not saying all polish guys are bad. my father is polish , my grand father is polish. Great people from whom im very praud. But poland its quite specific cauntry, if we look in geograhic ways we are slavics if mentaly most wester and this mixture made for forginers i guess is hard tounderstand. I think its even easy to notice poles as i think one cauntry doesnt keep closest contacts with other slavic cauntries like they do. In last year was even few programs on polish tv tvn (btw one of most free n independed in poland) about polish man, about relation of polish woman with foreginers and even one famous here italian guy Paulo Cozza who has polsih wife said he coudnt get it . Italian woman isnt like this, she or work or do job at home simple. Not like polish. and many others..

sorry for eventual mistakes

and i would like to add yet that from time poles start emigrating that much on west they start slwoly change. Thos people r bringing new lifestyle to poland ( sometiems good, sometimes bad) they learn alot there about their self i think. Alot of them fianlly got what they are. This is also fact which bother t polish men.

but polish woman date different men from different nations. Same european just maybe its not that visible like if she walk next to arab or smth.

Maybe they think european are all same? I cant say cos idontknow what think each of those women. but as long as they are happy( and i know that alot) this is important. Its not that only those very young girl are going with muslim, there is alot of mature woman who has baby and has experienced already/ so they gave this rights to be first for polish man but if they didnt take it just hurt they ant hv problem later that their woman chose others man.

And you people dont get mad im not in against polisg guys i just talk general what i see. This is image from one of most popular sitcom in poland its kind of parody smth like "Married with children" but its not just for fun it was and still in big % polish reality. All poles knows it and noone try to negate it. Most polish r laugh from theirself n others feels offended? anyway this is sad face of polish (still existing)reality.
