UK, Ireland / london bus company bosses hire staff from poland [5]

should get a few tongues wagging out here-

BOSSES of a British bus firm flew to POLAND to recruit 50 drivers - despite us having 2.64million people on the dole.

Study / Have you studied at Open University in Poland? [4]

hi pam thanks for replying,i am trying to work out my best options as i left school at 16 and never undertook any further studies and am really paying for it now.i live in warsaw and am currently only able to find work at teaching level or lower-paid level and would like to work in the british embassy in some capacity but it seems to me that not having a degree is a major obstacle.im so confused right now.

i would like to take studies in international relations at warsaw uni or international studies at open university.

sorry thing didnt work out in scaffolding, construction in the UK is a right mess these days and some hard working polish lads have been laid off even though they are excellent workers

recession has killed the building game in England.

pretty much no,i worked in scaffolding for 16 yrs and had a little experience of laying tiles but that was a long time ago.it would depend on what i would be doing if i was interested or not
