it is called envy and it is inside of everyone of us

It's a known fact: the Pole is happy when his neighbor or even a friend has bad luck. Why is that?

yes i did drink it but a long time ago and i am sure that the alcohol content was 40%.i don't know what it is now:( but if they changed that i won't touch that stuff again.
krupnik is a bit too sweet and heavy for me.if you drink too much it will give yuo a huge headache next morning. have you tried GORZKA ZOLADKOWA yet?it has a bit herbal taste but i think is just briliant:)
add GORZKA ZOLADKOWA VODKA into your tea.it goes down the pipe:) very well and warms up your stomach
Rafik- did they lower the alkohol content of Krupnik all over PL? When I was in south Pl it was changed to 38% but when in Poznan it was 40%. Here in the US it's 40% too. Do you know if it's been changed for good? I'm not sure if you drink it...just thought i'd ask.

Law / Hiring a Polish Worker - Pros and Cons [107]
this will give you a kick in your bum to get more qualifications
who's fault is it the comany's or the polish workers?
this is your opinion a little bit of competition never hurts
why don't you save your money? you earn twice as much as the polish workers
hehehe, have you checked that?maybe they have some friends who visit them regularly.4 people in 2 bedroom flat is the most common thing,they would have slept on each other otherwise.
nobody stops you from taking someone to your house .you can share your bills and then you with 2times more money and shared bills will afford buying a new flashy car
of course we do!!!if they haven't got a licence call the police immidietly!
you r repeat things without checking.speak to this people do a little research and then come back and tell us about it
taking jobs away from uk citizens
this will give you a kick in your bum to get more qualifications
they then brought in Polish workers to replace them on half their wages!!!!!!!!
who's fault is it the comany's or the polish workers?
this is disgusting
this is your opinion a little bit of competition never hurts
return to their homeland rich while the uk citizen stays poor
why don't you save your money? you earn twice as much as the polish workers
opposite my house there are 12 polish people living in a 2 bedroom flat!!!!
hehehe, have you checked that?maybe they have some friends who visit them regularly.4 people in 2 bedroom flat is the most common thing,they would have slept on each other otherwise.
they all have brand new cars parked outside their so called living accomadation..

but you will be a foreigner in canada.maybe they don't want you there?i know a polish decorator and he is brilliant.he was hired by the cheef of the local police even though he had no work permit 3 years ago and he wasn't that cheap,belive me
if your children live in france but you work in the uk are you not entitled to child benefit?the idea of EU is that if someone lives in England he or she is being treated equally.the problem is that we can not claim ANY benefits(apart from this one) before we have worked for 2 years in the UK without a break no longer than 1 month.this is why we pumped so much money into your system without taking anything.that's why your country's economy is so good now

no i was here without any papers but still my paki employer deducted tax and NI from my wages and i used to get 2.5 per hour.is it not unfair competition?they paid 2.5£/hour but the english employers had to pay 4.85/hour.it is still going on but there is unwritten law that the home office official don't check for illigal immigrants in ANY british restaurants.that's why indian/turkish ect restaurants win the competition with english restaurants
as a british law obiding citizen you should have reported it straight away.did you do it?
If you were in the UK for 5 years Rafik i had you had the right documents, seeing that you were not an E.U member in 2001.. Half the Polish builders i have met are still working for cash and not registered..

Life / Why are Poles always so miserable? Why do they never smile? [512]
soooo many times i noticed that brits push a blame on someone else(usually someone weak and defenceless).why?because they don't want to admit that they've done something wrong>
Mature countries-what does it mean?the countries which have gone through everything like murders,corruption,racism ect and not have a lot of experience? you shouldn't criticise us on this matter as you are not any better
i would say exactly the same about quite a few brits i saw and belive me a lot of you folks only smile when drunk(usually from thursday to tuesday).
so you are.most of the brits i know are unhappy about their lives.
you are wrong again.this is the minority of people who think that way.most of us want to come back to poland after a few years.
btw i bet that a few million brits emigrated(a few millions and still counting)to australia,spain,canada ect because they see no perspectives in england
i don,t know who you hang around with but a lot of the brits are also poor and unhappy.a lot of them can't even smile cos of the state of their teeth.
i just want to tell you that you see what you want to see.that's all.
Poles can't accept criticism. (In places like Sweden & Britain - "mature countries" - people accept criticism and think what they can improve about themselves or the state.

OK, I'll just rephrase my initial question slightly.
It's not just the lack of smiling in Poland, it's the whole Polish psyche that's F+cked up.

Very few people in Poland seem to be happy with their lives.
so you are.most of the brits i know are unhappy about their lives.
One symptom is that they're all escaping to GB and Ireland - 1 million and still counting. (Last person out please switch off the lights!) And don't tell me it's just for the money.... A lot of emigrants see no perspectives for themselves in Polska. They see the country as a dead end

To my mind you can still be poor but happy. Poles are both poor and unhappy.
Where is all the 'joie de vivre' in this country?
Surely it's not just a question of cold climate. The Swedes have a far worse climate, as do the Finns, but in general they're really sociable and open and happy.
