Ale pracę zawsze można zmienić. Przy takiej pensji możesz trochę pieniędzy odłożyć i potem pomyśleć o własnym biznesie kiedy czasy będą lepsze. Alien ma rację i myślę, że pawian też ma rację... Lepiej nie brać się za coś na czym się człowiek (przynajmniej na razie) nie zna, zwłaszcza w nowym kraju...

Powiem tak, moja ciotka kiedyś otworzyła sklep z odzieżą. Ceny wysokie, ubrania brzydkie ;P Nie sprzedawały się, więc sklep musiała zamknąć. Jej syn chyba zaraz po studiach wziął kredyt i otworzył bar. Bar nie zarabiał, więc mój brat cioteczny ogłosił bankructwo i teraz chyba jego mama spłaca ten jego kredyt... A oboje otworzyli swoje biznesy we własnej miejscowości, której realia teoretycznie powinni znać...

@Lenka, ja tam psychologiem też nie jestem i masz rację, ale generalnie na te badania najlepiej przyjść wyspanym, wypoczętym, zdrowym, nie pić alkoholu na dwa dni przed, itd. bo tam są różne testy - nie tylko psychologiczny, na osobowość (a dużo tych pytań jest), ale też na refleks/czas reakcji, na logiczne myślenie czy coś tam, itd.

A te badania psychologiczne trzeba przejść żeby w ogóle dostać się do wojska/na służbę przygotowawczą, a Oathbreaker się dostał, czyli jak rozumiem wtedy te testy przeszedł pomyślnie... Dlatego spytałam czy na zawodowego te badania jakoś szczególnie się różniły od tamtych. No bo jeśli nie to albo był wtedy jakoś wyjątkowo nie w formie, albo psycholog jakiś "udany/a"... (?)


Ja może samych gofrów też nie, ale z bitą śmietaną i polewą czekoladową to i owszem ;D Kojarzą mi się z wakacjami nad morzem :)

A ten "toddy" to z alkoholem jest?

Z drugiej strony - jeśli wtedy byłeś nie w sosie po rozstaniu z dziewczyną to może i lepiej że nie od razu drugi raz podchodziłeś, bo jakby Cię drugi raz negatywnie ocenili to już jest ostateczna decyzja... 🤔


Raz w życiu skusiłam się późną jesienią czy wczesną zimą (w każdym razie jakoś zimno było) na gofra z okienka z bitą śmietaną i polewą czekoladową, bo dawno nie jadłam i jakoś akurat na gofra naszła mnie ochota... Niestety to był błąd - zimny był i ręce mi zgrabiały od trzymania go - nigdy więcej na dworze w takiej temperaturze! lol


Może w Norwegii ludzie tam bardziej zahartowani :))

Po polsku / Targowisko - Bazar - Handel [36]

@Lenka, jakby nakierowywało to by Oathbreaker wiedział czemu dostał negatywną ocenę, a pisał wcześniej, że nie wie czemu się nie dostał na zawodowego i w tym temacie też napisał, że nie wie jakie miał braki... Nie wiem czy dobrze kojarzę, ale kiedyś to na takim druczku po prostu pisało czy psycholog stwierdził przeciwskazania do służby w wojsku czy nie i chyba nic więcej.

No cóż, człowiek uczy się na błędach :P Gdybyś wiedział o co chodziło to mógłbyś się odwołać w ciągu 14 dni i nie musiałbyś czekać rok...

Btw, a te badania psychologiczne na zawodowego jakoś szczególnie różniły się od tych do służby przygotowawczej?

@Lenka, podają - każdy osobno dostaje orzeczenie, więc nawet jeśli z własnej inicjatywy psycholog nie powie to się można zapytać (no chyba, że się coś zmieniło i teraz inaczej to wygląda).

Po polsku / Targowisko - Bazar - Handel [36]


Wydaje mi się, że powinieneś zostać poinformowany jaki był powód takiej decyzji. A skoro nie powiedzieli to trzeba było się zapytać...

Fibak?

News / Why is no one on here talking about the man killed by the Police in Lubin? [29]

@Ironside, I have no "main" source of information. Now, did you get out of your "deep hole" and bothered to read the interview I linked to in my previous post?

News / Why is no one on here talking about the man killed by the Police in Lubin? [29]


There wasn't any mention of that in any of the articles that I've read. It was mentioned that according to the police officers he was agitated and agressive, but there was no information about any attack or injuries sustained by the cops.

What's more, the police lied that the guy had no injuries, which was cotradicted by both the paramedics and the hospital.


Even if they didn't it isn't OK for them to kill someone "accidentally" like that. There were 4 cops and one guy with no weapon - they should be able to subdue one guy without killing him:

wroclaw.wp.pl/lubin-rodzina-zmarlego-34-latka-pokazala-nowe-nagranie-widac-na-nim-jak-policjant-ugniata-glowe-bartka-6674001177676448a


The police were called by the guy's family. His father said that he had thrown a small rock at his grandma's window.

Another family member said that it wasn't the first time he behaved like that - he was addicted. They tried to find help for him, but he was always sent home.


And what sources do you consider to be raliable? TVPiS? lol TV Republika? lol You see, I can "lol" too :)

Then how about a real expert? A guy who trained police officers and was the commander of the one of the biggest Police Training Centres in Poland (in Legionowo)? I think this is a pretty balanced interview with him and thorough - he mentions all kinds of problems that the police has these days and talks about all those controversial police intervensions that ended with death. It's worth reading, imho:

wiadomosci.wp.pl/piotr-calinski-policja-bedzie-gorzej-oceniana-niz-biskupi-tuszujacy-pedofilie-6684210086308352a

@gumishu, as for that article from Rzeczpospolita you linked to (which ended up in Random), I agree that both the police officers and the paramedics should try to resuscitate him, which they failed to do.


How can you write something like that? And how do you know that he did? It always amazes me how little right-wingers value human life (unless it's the life of the unborn lol).

Keep to minimum quotes please

There were some articles about it, for now I've found this:

@Milo, you don't live in Poland and I'm afraid you don't know what pawian is talking about...

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [543]

@amiga500, so anyone who disagrees with you on any given topic is a "traitor"? lol How convenient :)


People (you, among others) who claim that supporting a political party they don't like or having different political views than them is enough to call someone a "traitor", show by making such claims their intellectual and moral mediocrity, fanatism and bad character, imho.


First of all, I wasn't making fun of that prosecutor (even though he most likely deserves it, imho), but of your rather wild theory.

Secondly, if he has family, then his kids and his wife are "poor", not him. I feel sorry for his kids the most and not for that drunkard.

I also have a hard time buying it that you actually believe in your own theory.


Well, I'm sorry, but this discussion isn't about what's happening on the border with Belarus and I don't see aby debate currently going on about it on PF, so why of all topics I should be commenting about this particular one?


Oh, for God's sake, Ironside... I didn't write that "I know it all", I only wrote what is, according to me, a more probable explanation, knowing the realities of Polish society. I'd like to remind you that neither you nor amiga500 live in Poland.

It was amiga500 who behaved as if he "knew it all without knowing anything" and he was the one who started jumping to (rather ridiculous, imho) conclusions:

https://polishforums.com/news/poland-scandals-conflicts-tensions-arguments-84933/11/#msg1809784

And he didn't write "maybe", he didn't write that this is his "guess". He wrote it as if he was stating a fact.

Well, there's always going to be some kind of organised crime, but it doesn't mean that any such group can be called "mafia". I guess the only time I hear or read the word "mafia" being used is in the context of "mafia VATowska" (VAT mafia). Something for you, amiga500 :):

It's "Good Change", maf! "Dobra zmiana!" :D


Nah, he's more likely a pimp and this is why he knows so much about "mafia" in Poland :D

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [543]


What "mafia case"? You have no proof that he is working on any "mafia case". It's pure guesswork and probably also wishful thinking on your part.

And do we even have "mafia" in Poland? What mafia? Polish mafia? Ukrainian mafia? Russian mafia? Are you saying that PiS made Poland go back in time to the 90's and it's so bad nowadays that prosecutors have to fear for their life to such an extent that they go full monty in a shop? lol


Neither do you. You have no proof of your claim that he was working on some "mafia case" and that he went drunk and naked outside in public on purpose in order to get suspended :)

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [543]


Everything? lol I usually go for the most probable explanations, unless there is some proof to the contrary. Alcohol abuse among men is pretty much a norm in Poland and alcoholism among men has been always (since I can remember) very common where I live. And as you can see such cases like the one with that prosecutor aren't unheard of. The fact that he's a prosecutor doesn't change a thing - anyone can be a drunk or get drunk. And another thing - the Świdnica prosecutor is supposed to work on a case investigating PiS people. So we know about a case that could be (if we want to follow your path of conspiracy theories) the more probable reason for him to go full monty. And yet, you're still on the mafia theory. What mafia? In Świdnica?? lol


First you wrote "townspeople" and now you're writing about "neighbours" - so which is it?


He could simply resign from his position in Świdnica. Now he can even get a ban on being a prosecutor.

I honestly don't understand why some of you think it's so extraordinary and unbelievable that he simply got wasted to such an extent.


It wasn't a claim, it's a fact that the Świdnica prosecutor is a PiS guy. And why do you think I stressed that fact? Are you and Ironside really that clueless?

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [543]

Not so new after all - in 2016 a drunk and naked guy after a bachelor party broke into... a theatre:

dzienniklodzki.pl/nagi-i-pijany-w-teatrze-po-wieczorze-kawalerskim-obudzili-go-policjanci/ar/9866787

After making some mess he took down a curtain, covered himself with it and fell asleep on a balcony. He didn't know how he got there.

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [543]


Yes, he meant something else.

A drunk and naked guy vandalised a tram in Kraków on Sunday:

wiadomosci.onet.pl/krakow/nagi-i-pijany-mezczyzna-kopal-w-krakowie-w-tramwaje/wmlmr4f

Another prosecutor who "doesn't want to deal with mafia"? lol Or is it some kind of new epidemic?

Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 2 [1680]

@Ironside, yeah, I was able to identify the holster only:

proshop.targetscreators.com/produkt/kabura-safariland-glock-17-als-coyote-fde-stx-tlr1-x300-optic-prawa/

But it can be used to carry different pistols (FN, Glock, SIG Sauer, Smith & Wesson and STI Intl Staccato), so it didn't help much :P

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]


I'm not saying that this is how people are viewing themselves, but the fact that Americans are a young nation and maybe that's why there's this connection to "the old country" or at least being aware of their roots and, you know, celebrating some traditions, eating some "ethnic" food, those parades, etc.


As in - from which country? Are you still getting such questions in the US?

Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 2 [1680]


Maf already guessed this one :) But do you have any ideas which pistol this might be? I wanted to make it part of the riddle, but it was explained to me that one can't make out from this photo which pistol it is exactly (and I don't know the answer myself). Still, we can have some guesses, I suppose... :P


Nice one, I didn't notice that he has something on the other side too lol I just focused on the pistol ;))


Yes, correct (the mountain part of selection)! Well, actually, only the last photo is from GROM selection, the rest is from selection for AGAT, but I used those only because there aren't that many photos from selection for GROM. So, you've guessed Riddle 2 - congrats! :)


No, I just meant that the two photos/riddles are connected since there are soldiers from special forces on both of them, and, obviously, the GROM operator from Riddle 1 had to go through a selection.

So, what do you think happened for the first time 30 years ago (Riddle 3)? :)

Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 2 [1680]

@maf, nope, it doesn't have anything to do with land surveying - another photo hint :):

Oh, I forgot, and by the British :)


;D

They aren't eating gravel, they're just caught in a moment while doing something ;) But what you can see in the previous photo is just the beginning, they're going to spent at least a few days there. It's been taking place ever year in spring and autumn for the last 30 years:

@maf, nope - that's exactly what the hint was about - the faces being blurred :)

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]


And the UK is closer to Poland than the US, so Poles can take a cheap flight back home and eat Malinowa Chmurka made by their mom or grandma in Poland :)


Yes, nevertheless, I've noticed that many Americans like to celebrate their roots (I'm guessing it's because they're a nation of immigrants).

Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 2 [1680]

@maf, nope, it doesn't have anything to do with the Baltics or the Soviet occupation. Although, if we want to play in alternative reality - if the Soviet occupation didn't end, there probably would be no such anniversary, since what happened 30 years ago was modelled on something shown to Poles by... Americans :)

Hint for Riddle 2: look at the faces in both photos. What do they have in common?

USA, Canada / Poles Living in the Chicago Area [343]


No idea, could be, I guess... Maybe Joker will buy one and tell us :D


You mean something like this?:

domowe-potrawy.pl/drozdzowki-z-lukrem/

For me "drożdżówka" is usually the one with "kruszonka" (crumble) on top. I guess I'd be more likely to call a glazed roll "słodka bułka", but from what I can see on the internet it's called "drożdżówka" too.

Where I live glazed rolls are often with pudding on top:

piekarniawiejska.com/media/items/bulka-slodka-z-budyniem.jpg

(I remember them well, because I was quite often buying them for second breakfast at high school lol)


How big? According to info on Wiki there are almost 10 mln people with Polish roots in the US, so that's rather a lot...

Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 2 [1680]


Yup, correct - you've guessed Riddle1! :))


Nope! There's a link between the two photos, but not through migrants/refugees. All of the men in the photo are in Poland legally (and probably most, if not all, were born in Poland) - if they weren't, they wouldn't be allowed to take part in what's going on. The area in general in the photo is, however, known for human trafficking through a border.


Nope, it isn't a well known anniversary. I don't even know if it's googable, but if you guess Riddle 2 it's going to be easier to guess Riddle 3 :) Hint: It's an anniversary of something that happened for the first time 30 years ago.

Travel / Poland in photo riddles - part 2 [1680]

Come on, guys, Riddle 1 is easy :) I made it mainly for our PF gun owners, but you don't have to own a gun to find it in a photo (that's a hint already - it's a firearm :)).

News / Scandals, conflicts, tensions, arguments - real life examples from Poland [543]



There you go, you answered your own question! PiS is like mafia and this is why that prosecutor from Świdnica doesn't want to work on that case described in the article that I linked to in my comment #316. You and amiga500 are absolutely brilliant! :D
