Actually she's Afrikaner-American not African-American - she is a European (Dutch) decendent, not African. Just thought Id point that out, there is a world of difference.

Genealogy / Polish Gypsy Roots & Roma ancestors in their families [205]

Respectful? You call approaching people with a baby in one arm and the other hand out for money respectful? How about marrying off your daughters when they are under age? There isnt much nice to say about your culture of your people. Beggers and thieves who contribute nothing and take what they can, ruin the countryside and cause misery!

Now can you travel somewhere else? If after 500 years you still havent integrated, its about time you moved on.

Do you want me to post links about what your kind have done in the UK? Because the visions of lovey painted caravans is long gone.

In 1510, any Romani found in Switzerland were ordered to be put to death, with similar rules established in England in 1554, and Denmark in 1589, whereas Portugal began deportations of Romanies to its colonies in 1538.[

You see we still have the same opinion now as we did 500 years ago :D

Law / Hiring a Polish Worker - Pros and Cons [107]

No need for that kind of tone but I will clarify something you overlooked.

I didnt single out Polish I said Eastern European.

Why should a company invest in a person only for them to leave, yes I understand that this happens with British people, but the point I made was that she lied, she said "oh yes Im staying here for another year" but now she's off back to Poland because she has saved enough money for her studies etc.....

Its made me look like an idiot and I feel pretty bad for asking for a favour from a friend...a little bit of honesty goes a long way!!!

Law / Hiring a Polish Worker - Pros and Cons [107]

Okay I have bring this back up to the top because I can think of a con with regards to hiring a Polish worker, a while back I got a friend an interview at a large corporate company (my friend is a manager there), okay the job was just a clerical job but the money was okay and it meant she could improve her English, plus it looked better on her c.v. than her job at the time which was waiting tables. When the company took her on, she said she would be going back to Poland in September (for studies) so they gave her a fix-term contact, then she told them that she would be staying for another year so they made her permanent staff (no real difference, she got paid leave and all the other usual stuff before)....Okay I will get to my point, she gave her notice in last week telling the company she was going to London with her b/f, her Manager doesnt believe it because they actually offered a transfer to a branch in the south because she is a really good worker and the company believe in staff retention.....they now believe that she had no intention of staying with the company for another year and had every intention of going back to pl for studies this year and the upshot of it is they dont see the point in employing young Eastern Europeans who will be trained (which costs money) only to then leave after a few months...like I mentioned about staff retention / training, I dont think any company wants high staff turn-over and high training costs

Language / Polish Swear Words [1242]


At least they used please, which I would consider a rather polite way of telling someone to go f*ck themselves :)

learn to spell before casting your aspursions or maybe travel a little bit more and you will see that there are a lot of well behaved English people out that enjoy and respect other countries cultures and whilst you're at it try stepping off that bandwagon you just jumped on!

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]

I have noticed since having to get the damn bus to work (I hate not having the tram) the young Polish men are the ones that will offer up a seat for a women, I see nothing rude about this. But I have encounted some very rude ones at the airport (all three times on my travels to PL) who dont actually get it that you have wait in line and pushing people is really not acceptable, so I would say as always there are people that are rude, not a nation.

Referring to Gingers post, I personally think they could have asked, it would have been polite, also the parking across the driveway would drive (pardon the put) me crazy, its all down to common curtisy and respecting your neighbours

Travel / Collection of dress codes in Poland - what to wear? [96]

Any catholic will know that you should cover your shoulders and dress modestly in church...But everywhere else anything goes even short skirts, I saw plenty of them when I was there last summer...mainly worn by girls under the age of 20...dress your age - mutton dressed as lamb isnt attractive in any country..

Travel / Collection of dress codes in Poland - what to wear? [96]

I would say something modest for church but when I was in Poland last year there were women (well girls) in short skirs and such like, I wore shorts and so did lots of other people...

Life / Price of cigarettes in Poland? [192]


about £10 / £11 :) but tell him to be carefull how many he brings in I was a bit a cheeky biatch when our flight got diverted to B/ham (they dont really check in M/c) and I just walked past the long line of people who were having their cases checked - never seen so many L&M's in my life stacked up that had been confiscated...but I did manage to bring back a 1,000 :)

I speak to a guy on skype and he was surprised that we have to wait so long in A&E to see a doctor, I also speak to a guy (he is what we call in England a Paramedic I cant remember the name in Poland) but your health service is probably the same as ours in terms of treatment and probably better in terms of people being seen faster...so you see Poland isnt as bad as people may think....

As for your government, maybe they should spend less money on hunting people from communist times and more on present times

Life / Gypsies or Roma: European and Polish attitudes towards [87]

Funnily enough there was a programme on last night - Panarama - and it was about numbers of immigrants in Slough and the people living in Slough thought they (Roma) were scum and in general were afraid to walk the streets after dark in some areas.

Here is an example:-

There was a family of 24 living in a 3 bed house with one bathroom, guess what they used the garden and the entry at the back of the house as a toilet...they estimate about 400 / 500 live in Slough, also social services find it hard to deal with situations where there is a pregnant 14 year old girl married to a 15 year old boy ....and yes they beg on the street, I have only seen a couple in Manchester, but thats enough for me.

I dont know the figures, so I cant debate, I just feel for those who have stayed in Poland and are losing out because of it, the same as I feel for people who cant aford to get on the property ladder here in the UK...The gap in poverty in old age will be massive, those that have and those that dont....I know this has always been the case, but I cant help feeling it will be much worse in years to come.

But none the less it has made a difference, it would be interesting to see if Polish abroard are buying properties for buy to let, its a pension at the end of the day and who can blame them, they were forced to leave the comfort of their own homes / families in search of a better life...and when weighing up the prices of property in the UK, Poland is a much better option, a friend of mine and her b/f have just bought land, they have managed to save this amount of money in the UK in just 12 months.

The English have been doing this for years, my uncle worked out in the Middle East raking it in and paid his mortgage off in 3 years (many moons ago :) )

My point LIR is that foreigners can usually aford to pay more because of the economic differences, this is a factor, whilst everyone is blaming the British for upping the prices in Poland, what about the 1000s of Polish that work abroad, earn good money and buy properties in Poland are they not adding to this??......
