Attack me all you want- what I say is true. Blokersi is a way of thinking- just because somebody has made a success for themselves doesn't change their way of thinking.

Very much so. If anything, success reinforces someone's way of thinking.

Actually it isn't. However, Warsaw is full of the snobbiest most obnoxious people who think the world revolves around them because they have money.

Yes, though the richest people often keep quiet about it. The ones flashing their money around on ul. Senatorska etc are the same tacky people you get everywhere from the Rhine to the Volga.

We work hard for our money- and most importantly we don't flaunt it- I am already a target because I am foreign.

Same here - yet people sometimes assume you have a hidden advantage if you come from somewhere else.

of which you are the queen.

She is.

It seems you have got so many personal problems and frustrations living in Poland that I think it would be better if you left that country.

My thoughts exactly.

While I wouldn't have written it the same way as she did, pip has hit on something that I've noticed for a long time in this country- a little bit of extra money goes a long way in people's minds.

I am a native English speaker with little teaching experience, and I am looking for a job in Warsaw. But I am thinking of moving to Berlin as I am finding it difficult to make a life here. I find Poland very restricting.

You need to move out of Warsaw and try some of the other areas of Poland as Warsaw in saturated the same as Krakow is.

I know where there is a job right now at a good school with a great boss, but not many people would want to move to Pulawy.
