PiS politicians spent the weekend in various cities in Poland, attacking Tusk and his gov. PIS chairman compared Tusk to Adolf Hitler. etc.. Amassing that PiS gangsters are following the same sick agenda which led to their defeat in recent elections. They have learnt nothing. Bad for them but good for us!!! Excellent!

While the Saviour of Poland has commented on PIS` revelations in such a way:

In turn, Donald Tusk only posted a short entry with a recording. "I was thinking about whether to comment on the chairman`s words, but fortunately someone occupied me with really important matters," the Prime Minister wrote on the X website. The recording captures the moment when a child sticks a Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity heart to the Prime Minister's sweater.

Classy!

Mongrel, Iron was lying about a simple matter which could be easily proven if it was true. Stop azholing, you are wasting time.

Darling, I pointed to your latest lie here and you didn`t try to prove your claim. It means you were lying.

Yes, darling, we know, you are very suspicious. Like all nazio azholes. Is that one of the reasons your wife left you coz she couldn`t bear all your ungrounded suspicions???

Darling, he positively infects people with enthusiasm to work and donate for charity. If you can`t see it, you are the azhole I always claim.

Stop lying about Owsiak - you should polish his boots but I doubt he would allow you to do it. He is a great caring man while you are nazio nobody.

Torq, you were hugely offended when I was radical on Iron. My radicalism has solid grounds. He is a lying azhole, psycho nazio boy, stinking misygynist and Kremlin boot licker.

Today is the final day of this year`s edition. Each year there is sth new and this year wasn`t different.

The 32nd final of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity is underway. 120,000 volunteers are collecting money on the streets of Polish cities.
The counter on the website of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity showed over PLN 67 million. This amount had been collected by 17.00 hours.

Jerzy Owsiak announced at a press conference that in Krakow a donor put PLN 100,000 into the WOŚP can. zloty. Eliza Biel, the head of the Krakow staff, revealed the details: - He approached the volunteers who were at the market square with golden retrievers, dogs involved in the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity campaign. He said he had been collecting money for three years to reach the round sum. He started putting hundreds of them into one can. The money didn't fit, so a second can was needed. After counting at the WOŚP headquarters, it turned out that one can contained 23,000. PLN 998 and 46 groszy, and in the second one - PLN 76,000. PLN 367, 52 gr. Each PLN 100 was placed in a banknote. The gentleman didn't introduce himself. The volunteers were so shocked that they didn't ask anything, she reported.

Wow!

Because there is a war in Ukraine and will be a war in Poland and I don`t have time to deal with azholes and traitors in velvet gloves like in the past. Simple.


It is in case of useless azholes and traitors.


Because Poles have a stupid tradition of naming streets after any famous Poles despite his or her contribution which can be good or bad. It is especially painful to see such streets honouring Warsaw Rising instigators like that pathetic Okulicki who was fully intent on drowning the city in blood. A landfill can be named after him, not a street.


I know you love it so I keep doing it. hahahaha

Work / Are Poles workaholics? [164]

- We used to have three interns on our team. June came, we prepared schedules for the entire team and arranged holidays. And suddenly, halfway through the month, all three sent an email. They wrote that it was great, but they had to rest and go on vacation because it was summer. I went crazy.

Ewa is 48 years old, works in a large company and has people of different ages in her team, including people in their twenties.

- I look at these colleagues with kindness, but I know that this is a "completely different story." They have completely different priorities than work and they say it directly. If they happen to oversleep before going to the office at 9 a.m., "nothing happened, their body probably needed it." I get stressed when I'm stuck in a traffic jam and I know I'll be at the office at 9.05 However, a conversation during which someone evaluates their work is stressful for them. What I mean is a polite, calm conversation with the manager who shows the employee's strengths and weaknesses, suggests what can be done better, and finally asks: how do you feel? What can I improve in our communication? I have heard more than once from young people that such contact and meeting embarrasses them...

- One quarter of the problems in large companies concern communication in teams, says Róża Szafranek, an HR expert with many years of psychological and managerial experience. - And these are the so-called communication problems.. Because on the one hand, there are millennials, brought up in a culture of "die hard work". They follow the rule that if you want to achieve something, you work 14 hours a day. This generation has built companies this way, lives this way, has this way of thinking. And many millennials today go "nowhere". What does it mean? Senior managers or people with extensive experience in corporations are burnt out and tired, and if they can afford it, they take a break from work for several months.

"Suddenly, people who worked very hard and were taught this work ethos are disappearing from the labor market," the expert continues. - It then turns out that you have to manage employees who have a different approach. But the managers are also exhausted, so they have a short fuse with the 20-year-olds they hired. The circle closes.

- In 2024, we will have a communication crisis on the labor market, predicts Róża Szafranek. - People will throw papers from day to day, there will be staff shortages. I warn managers that they will have to assume 15-20 percent. additional funds in the budget for training and employing additional project managers, because today, compared to managing a group of 40-year-olds, managing the same number of 20-year-olds requires twice as much time and effort. This is because young people really need interaction and the division of tasks. Millennials were given a task and they took over it with full responsibility, it was a very basic competence, important for the employer. And today people don't have that. Young people say: give me ten small tasks, because if I have the whole area, I won't be able to handle it.

- 20-year-olds also have no responsibility, and many things are too stressful for them - explains Róża Szafranek. - These are situations that are completely normal for 40-year-olds. But it's not like they can freely say to each other: not this job, another one. Today there is little money on the market and the number of jobs is falling. Still, it doesn't scare twenty-year-olds. They say "I'm OK with that, I don't have to have money because I don't have to have it." "I can work in a cafe in Portugal, earn $200 and live with seven people." For millennials, this is unthinkable. For them, having things in the sense of buying an apartment or saving something on the side is important for a sense of security.

- 20-year-olds prefer to live in harmony with themselves, they don't have to have this status, they don't have to have money. They are able to say: now I'm going to the office, I'll transfer the papers. If they hear: with this approach you won't develop so quickly. But for them, development is not the only measure of success.

Róża Szafranek also adds that classification and specificity are important for 20-year-olds at work.

- They say: okay, so I have five things written in the job description, and today two new things appeared at work. So what's really going on with me? When it comes to overtime, they are also able to say: I won't come after 6 p.m. because I found out about it too late, I have other plans. Or: if I come, how will I perceive it? I don't see it as demanding, that they want more. I think their boundaries are very firm. I think we are not used to this.

The expert adds that generational conflicts between millennials and 20-year-olds at work mainly concern the latter's lack of independence.

- We expect young people to take on new tasks as quickly and as willingly as the boomer generation or the millennial generation. Millennials said, just throw it all at me and I'll figure it out. But today young people will say: I'm sorry, but I think I need to get a set of tasks from you along with a deadline. "What should I do? What will I be rewarded for?" Young people are unlikely to notice that something is missing in the office and they will not report it, for example, to HR. They have no such responsibility for shared property. And millennials get mad at them for this and say: well, you don't feel like you're part of this company at all. But on the other hand, young people are very socially and ecologically sensitive. For example, if someone says "hello gentlemen, it's good to see you", the younger generation will be the first to speak up and say: there are also ladies in the room.

"Maybe they're right," Agata wonders aloud. - Maybe we have made this whip against ourselves in the form of the belief that we have to always give a million percent at work and fulfill all the boss's whims, because if we don't, someone will fire us. Maybe this is how you should live, take care of yourself first, then everything else? There's only one thing that bothers me about these twenty-year-old friends. When I have a cold, I take vitamins, strengthen my body, work from home for a day, and then return to the office. And they take a sick leave for any cold. They come to the office, sniffle, and you already know who won't be there the next day...

Work / Are Poles workaholics? [164]


Older generation like me still are. Younger ones, like millenials aka generation Z aren`t. They don`t want to work hard in order to gain financial security and possess things like houses, apartments, cars, big accounts. They just want to live.

This is a worldwide trend coz we are a global village and Poland is not an exception.

Here is an excellent article which describes the changing attitude to work in Poland:

20-year-olds go to work. "On Thursday I can start at noon because I have breakfast with my friends in the morning"
After a few weeks, they come to the conclusion that 8-hour working time is too much, that handing in material on the same day is beyond them, and direct contact with their superior and colleagues in the office "exceeds their personal limits" . I can't understand it all, I have a different attitude towards work. I was taught that once you have it, you should respect it. For them it's a bit like this: not this one, this is another one - says Agata about 20-year-olds on the labor market.

Anna Frydrychewicz

Iwona works in a Warsaw corporation. She is 42 years old and participates in recruitment processes in her company.

-I remember the last two recruitment interviews for the marketing department. There was a boy who had just finished his studies and was starting another one, but only on weekends, and a girl who had just finished maternity leave, he says. - This was the stage where we presented each other's expectations in a slightly more specific way and talked about remuneration. The rate the boy quoted was reasonable and not excessive . However, he set a few conditions: for example, on Thursdays he can start work at 12:00, because he has a certain habit that he will not give up. That day, he eats breakfast with his friends, and this is a sacred thing for him, a condition of his emotional balance and a ritual that keeps him in harmony with the world. He also announced that if the company has a dress code, he is against it, because "even at school it doesn't apply anymore." It was a shock for my older friends. The younger ones said they even understood it.

And here a generational gap immediately appears: for forty-year-olds it is unthinkable to set such requirements when applying for a job. - sums up Iwona. - We are accustomed to the fact that we have to earn a job and not expect too much, lest we be perceived as demanding. The youngest generation believes that the employer should take care of them.

Iwona says that such comments during a job interview no longer surprise her, that from her point of view, there are much more "outrageous" ones, especially for staid millennials who are used to working hard without asking for a raise. Typically, however, the claims of twenty-year-olds appear only when they are employed, and not during the recruitment process.

- We once had a colleague in the sales department who never physically showed up at work. He only wanted to work remotely because he claimed that "it was much healthier for him mentally." He maintained that the presence of people stressed him out, prevented him from being effective, and that it made him feel depressed. He didn't even turn on his camera on teams because he didn't like people looking at him.

Iwona points out that such behavior "passed" only for a certain time. There were mandatory integration meetings, there were trips, you had to show up to the client and talk to him in a way other than by e-mail.

- Well, one day P. simply sent a message that he thanked me and didn't work from tomorrow. He also did not understand that there was a notice period for terminating the contract. After negotiations and requests, he stayed until the end of the month. When he left, we breathed a sigh of relief.

- Those who were hired 10 years ago have stayed with us permanently - says Agata, who is the head of one of the editorial offices. - But the twenty-somethings who came to us last year dropped out after a few months. The turnover among young people is huge and I emphasize once again that they are leaving, not being fired. After a few weeks, they come to the conclusion that 8-hour working time is too much, that handing in material on the same day is beyond them, and direct contact with their superior and colleagues in the office "exceeds their personal limits" . I can't understand it all, I have a different attitude towards work. I was taught that once you have it, you should respect it. For them it's a bit like this: not this job, there will be another one.

While I don`t respect nazio bioys like Iron coz their patriotism is peculiar. Reminds me of 18th century Targowica traitors who were also strongly convinced that allying with Russia to prevent rotten Western ideals and ideas from spreading in Poland was a very patriotic thing to do. They achieved their aim through partitions and Poland ceased to exist.

Iron is exactly the same criminal. He and his nazio buddies won`t mind Poland ruled by the Kremlin regime as long as it is free of German influence, leftists, centrists, LGBT, refugees, minorities etc. If Russians can clean Poland of what Iron rejects, then he will gladly accept their rule.

How can I respect such a traitor??? Tfu, zaraza!

"You will die like the one from Gdańsk, Adamowicz (...)". He threatened the organizers of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity finale

Date of creation: January 27, 2024, 11:38 am.

If this was a joke, it was a very stupid one. However, police officers from Piła (Greater Poland Voivodeship) took this statement very seriously and detained the 55-year-old author of the threatening internet entry. The man wrote: "You will die like the one from Gdańsk, Adamowicz, he was also a scumbag, (...) and you are on the short list."

The entry appeared under a post by one of the local staffs of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity. The case was immediately reported to the police. The 55-year-old man was quickly arrested. Now he will have to face the consequences of his actions.

- I think it was directed at me. I'm sure the police will track down this person. You are not anonymous on the Internet and sooner or later we will find out who issued such criminal threats against us - said Paweł Kądziela, organizer of the Great Orchestra of Christmas Charity finale in Dobrzyca, in an interview with Asta24.pl. And indeed, a man from the Słupsk commune was quickly arrested.

Moreover, the evidence was so strong that the court decided to temporarily arrest him for three months. - The detained person has already been charged with a penalty of up to three years in prison - says Senior Sgt. Magdalena Mróz from the police in Piła.

News / Dodgy PRL-holdover judiciary finally reformed [420]


It has just been disclosed that certain PiS-controlled prosecutor has been hiding inconvenient court files in the garage. Can you believe it???

How many cases like that will be revealed before we are able to say that the PIS swamp has been cleaned to the bone?????

Judge Beata Morawiec commented on the case of court files from the prosecutor's office in Lublin, which were to be kept in the garage, on Saturday on TVN24. - We were all very surprised when such a collection of documents was revealed in such an interesting place - she said. She added that "the action of concealing certain aspects of the activities undertaken by the prosecutor's office and possibly depriving other people who could deal with these matters of access to these files is torpedoing investigations."

The acting national prosecutor, Jacek Bilewicz, asked the regional prosecutor in Lublin, Jerzy Ziarkiewicz, to clarify the matter of storing files. Ziarkiewicz allegedly blocked cases involving PiS politicians for years and kept files of inconvenient cases in the garage. The case was described by "Gazeta Wyborcza". Everything came to light when a driver from the prosecutor's office complained that he had nowhere to park his car because the garage was full of files. Ziarkiewicz is a trusted person of the former Minister of Justice Zbigniew Ziobro .

[i]Judge Beata Morawiec said it was "surprising". - I think we were all very surprised when such a collection of documents was revealed in such an interesting place. I don't want to talk about how they were secured. The loss of one document from the file by the person responsible for it constitutes disciplinary proceedings at least. So I wonder how, why and why, in such quantity, the gentleman who had access to the files decided to store these documents in such conditions, exposing them to destruction - said the judge.

She emphasized that "a person who has documents as important as the files of preparatory proceedings is obliged to take care of these documents."

Dental care was available mostly in big cities in communist Poland. Smaller places were deprived of it coz dentists didn`t live there and didn`t want to work there. That is why communists organised mobile dental care clinics.

I still remember fluorisation campaigns in 1970s - we had to bring our toothbrushes on the appointed day and our school dentist made us brush our teeth with that funny fluor paste.

One day several boys from my class, including me, forgot about the day. During the long break we ran out of school to the nearest newsagent`s were we bought new toothbrushes coz we were afraid the teachers would punish us.
