have you noticed this is the way that all ex-English teachers go
There is some weird and wonderful on here, they go back to the UK with their tale between the legs, or because of a failed relationship and vendetta mode kicks in, it's so weird and then they wonder, why the girl dumped them or they lost the job - go figure.
The worst I have encountered are guys (why is it always guys?) that come over here from English speaking countries and think they are the business, the man, that they are better than others. But they don't have a pot to pee in to or a window to throw it out because they never amounted to much and after the novelty of the foreigner wears off, people realise that they are not worth it and the rest is as you say...

It is not only the people from English speaking countries, you get the Dutch,Germans and French. The best ones I have met here after the Poles are the Irish and the Scots at least they can laugh at themselves.
There was still no call for what they said to the guy. It's simply not on to start ganging up in numbers in a foreign country and shouting stuff like that. The OP just got unlucky. Many idiotic Poles went across and are not doing their nation proud but they exist unfortunately.
It's still on the go! :) Many chavish Poles went across early days in a kind of 'let me out of here' mad surge. Then more intellectual people saw chances for themselves. I can't see why people are attacking the OP. I'd be gutted too were some prejudiced folk to come across and criticise me for having red hair. There are enough morons amongst the locals already, we don't need more!
I get some but I think just for being foreign. I'm a whitey so I don't get so many. There are rudzielcy here too :)
Geez, I thought I was in Africa or China this last week. In the areas I walked through, there were more Africans than pure Scots, I kid you not. Aberdeen attracts those that want a sniff of the oil/gas profits.
I will continue on this thread later today but let's not let a good thread die.

I found the MC element to be a little too much. I mean, we have to accept what is to a certain extent but, judging in scale terms, there needs to be a cutback as immigrants are everywhere. I felt like I was in an experimental city where they had thrown all sorts together and told them to mingle. Gliwice is the other way, too one dimensional. Ah, the need for balance and a happy medium. Well, the desire anyway :)
As I thought, the UK (Scotland anyway) is a nasty mix of too many immigrants, snobs and junkies. I saw all these elements all too clearly. Junkies with their hands outstretched for change, snobs with their noses up and ignoring all around them and immigrants, well, generally being ubiquitous.
I really don't see much progress in any front in the UK. It's a stagnant cesspit which is a prime target for being further stripped of its assets.
Seriously, it's sad to see people so deluded that they think the UK is going to be some sort of mighty country that can provide them with a fantastic life full of opportunities.
The fact is: it's a country, like any other, full of it's own problems, and full of it's own people.
The foreigners you're seeing are likely to be visitors, UK is a big tourist destination, London being the biggest destination and port of call in the world thanks to it's business links and cultural history.
I'm glad you're going back to your own country because frankly your attitude is **** poor, you can't come here and expect everything to be handed out to you on a plate, especially in the middle of the worst recession we've experienced for decades, 'ugly' people are everywhere, and I'm very sure if I went around thinking "oh everyone is ugly here" in Poland, that's all I'd see.
It goes both ways, if you want to come here you've got to have an open mind, accept something and give something back otherwise you're going to go exactly the way you've gone.
Statistically speaking with the amount of British/Polish relationships you'd think so, i just dont see it at ground level. I think most Poles left Poland for a reason and are in no hurry to return, and the Brits will never get around the employment problem, the choices remain teach English or start business, unless of course their financially dependent which is highly unlikely.
If Poland had decent work prospects then yeh but i dont see that happening for a long, long time.
Take this forum for example its still basically the same old same old members that have been here for years.
