Life / I am moving to Warsaw. (Could anyone tell me about life there?) [49]

What I want to know mainly is like how much costs me for renting a flat in Warsaw,how I can pay utility,some kind of stuff.If someone living in Warsaw who already working, please tell me about them.I don't look for language exchange people this time,and I can't be your Japanese teacher.

But if someone who are interested in Japan, would be nice and I will answer but language( sorry for that,been busy lately)
Thank you all for reading,information.
Bardzo dziękuję :)

Travel / Wroclaw to Lublin - the best way to travel [5]

I think using plane is best.(I dont know the price)
Wroclaw to Lublin by train takes 7hour and half,price is 20 zloty if you are student.
by Polski bus,,,,takes about almost 10 hours,the price is depending on when you make reservation,but not so expensive.
Enjoy Lublin,I just came back from Lublin,I already became a fan of Lublin,I will be working there ;)

Law / My chef salary not paid yet - Poland's National Labour Inspectorate can help? [6]

Hi everyone.
Thank you for helping me always when I ask.

Now I am in difficult situation,in hell,more like.

I am hired as Japanese chef at some JP restraunt,so came here in last month.My work contract 15 Nov 2014 to 14 Nov 2015.
When I talked with my boss who is Japanese before I moved to Poland,he said the restraunt open in dec,so I believed his word,quit my job in Japan,,,

It turns out,the restraunt has'nt been opened yet,my salary never get paid,because "the restraunt is not open,he can't afford my salary"

I have work permit which I took in Polish embassy in Japan.
I am thinking to sue this a**hole or report to PIP(Państwowa Inspekcja Pracy)
I have no knowledge about Polish labour law for foreigner.
Anybody please give me advices or something I should prepare to sue him or leave him.
I really want to leave this project,but Is there any possibility he could sue me,even I don't take salary?
I checked PIP HP,but all are written in Polish,couldn't find any info.If anyone who is lawyer or know labour law,please help me...

I am so desparate :( Thank you for your all help in advance.

Thank Polish forum for changing titles-It might be better to get attention from viewers.

Law / My chef salary not paid yet - Poland's National Labour Inspectorate can help? [6]

Thank you for answering,cms.

Unless you have signed contract they are very unlikely to get involved.

I have work permit which I got in Japan,is this useable?(on this paper,there are term of work,my salary price,company address,but only boss's signed,not my sign.Tell the truth,we have not made work contract yet)

Thank you for answering pigsy

Of course I would hire a lawer if nesessary...He is Japanese,so first I will talk him that I want to leave his project.

Do you think it is possible,I get paid,and leave from him? If I agree work permit,I could be sued?

Thanks Harry.

Useable for what exactly?

I am wondering if I could use my visa as work contract,but in your tips,my work permit has not been issued,and we haven't made any contract between me and the employer.

I have found now I am in trouble with my visa because my boss didn't do anything about social insurance which he was supposed to do it within 15 business days after I came in Poland. Now even I have a visa,my status become like a tourist.so today I am going to prefecturual office,explain what's happening,want to leave this company,already found next job etc...

I have no friends here in Poland,my employer was only person I could rely on,but he's just so useless..
