Life / Are Polish roads really this bad? [237]

Merged thread: The Polish roads

polandpoland.com/driving_poland.html - regarding that site, is what's written there accurate?

If so, what the hell is wrong with this country? I'm happy I don't have a drivers license so no need to experience driving here but living in a larger metropolitan area I have to wonder over the competence of these city planers when in smack middle of the city there are unpaved dirt roads with gigantic mud puddles and potholes.

And if ever I see any infrastructure improvements it's with an EU billboard sign next to it. Is Poland too poor to have the "basics" done right? Is it incompetence? If so, are the Polish in charge of planning and building roads? Because giving Poland money to ****** seems dumb then. Is it inexperience of running their own country? Do they hire foreign contractors? Or is there some national pride against that?

I am not trying to be insulting but I find a lot of life in Poland quite frankly baffling!

Life / Barking Dogs in Poland [64]

If you have a neighbor calmly standing by his car washing it with a big nasty dog running back and forth along their fence barking all the time someone walks by on the street loudly and they ignore their dog like that then they have no common decency towards their fellow neighbors. I can't understand how they can just pretend they don't hear that and do nothing about it, just keep the friggin' mut indoors then it's nice and quiet.

This small city is so nice at night time when people keep their stupid animals indoors instead on their yard barking all day long. And the poorer neighborhoods even have them running around loose without any dog-collars...

Point is, there's dogshit all over the sidewalks and during spring when the snow is melting you have it floating around....

Can you even call some authorities on these morons for not taking responsible care of their animals? Also, the recommendation to talk to these people is at best a fantasy that they would listen and understand.

In case cops wont do anything and the neighbor continues to disregard their community what are some good places and brand names to buy these antifreeze and rat poison because my patience is running thin...

Life / 3 reasons why you hate Poland. [1049]

my 2 cents worth:

1. post office, they keep loosing things i send, and i sell over the internet so it's a big deal.

2. lack of credit card payment terminals (biedronka, netto, restaurants many many places, post office)

3. i was gonna add the lack of decent sidewalks, poor roadsystem etc but i think all the dogshit lying around everywhere is worse.
