Shared Service Centers have been around for about 30 years and are not something that was invented in Poland.
Either you are not as qualified as you say, or you have applied to some call center that does not have the budget or you are talking through your ass spreading rubbish. As as German native speaker with a Master in Economics you can not earn more than 3500 PLN a month? Did you get your degree from Frankfurt / Oder Oberschule or why is nobody interested in you?
I keep going back to before Poland joined the EU. I used to take the train from Poznan to Berlin and it used to be packed with Germans going home on Fridays. Why? Because German efficiency and accuracy was appreciated well before Poland joined the EU and it still is. Getting an offer of 3500 zlotych per month, either your degree is fake or youhave nothing to offer.
But dont say it is the general Polish job market. Nobody but you is responsible for your failure.
Now you can find many so called "Shared Service Centers" in Poland

The only people Poles dislike are the so called Polish Americans who believe that their dollar grants them more liberties than the locals have. They don't necessarily hate them but laugh at them and are quite happy to take all their dollars off them before they actually know what happened. Other than that, they hate people who will tell them that Russia is the best thing that could ever happen to Poland.
If you are not either of the two, you will be fine in Poland. Poles are a very friendly and welcoming bunch of people.

Is that the reason why the Russians just shot the Polish officers? Because they felt that this is the kindest thing to do?
Crow, come to Poland. Poles do not like Russians and I face that almost every weekend when I go out in Lodz. Sometimes, when I go out with colleagues from Baltic countries they are asked where they are from. Knowing most bouncers in Lodz, I know that if they would say Russia they would have to find somewhere else to go to.
Despite your fantasy of a united "Slavia", Poles hate Russia. It doesn't mean that they love Germany but at least we have managed to grow together. Why? Because we focus on our future together, not on some irrelevant fantasy of brotherhood etc.
Come to Poland and you will understand that Poles are not overly excited about what Germans did in 6 years of occupation but are even less excited about Russia's feeling to depress Poland for over 40 years after the war ended.
Russians feel to be kin to Poles.

That is only your believe. There is no such thing as a "Slavic name". There are several Slavic languages out of which names derive from. There is no unified Slavic language and hence there is no such thing as "Slavic Names". You may want to approach the Sorbs in German and tell them that it is good that Cottbus also carries the Slavic name of the city. Let's see how far you get with your argument.
Ever been to Cottbus? ........ I mean, speaking of trolling.......surely you met some Sorbs?
I am not trying to raise any issue. Just pointing out that your concerns about the Sorbian language and the relationship of the Sorbs with the Germans, their rights as a minority etc. are not an issue. In fact, Germany has done literally everything it can to pre-serve their rights.
I can not remember walking through Belfast and seeing double language signs anywhere. Yet, here you are, as a Brit, raising the issue of "only" three towns in Germany carrying the German and Sorb language names. The way you wrote it seemed that it was an issue for you. Seeing that you are British, perhaps you should also raise the issue of towns and signs in Northern Ireland not carrying both languages, English and Irish Gaelic?
Or do you just raise issues whenever it is suitable for you?
Before you start your trolling, you should read a message more carefully. "Slavic names" mean Slavic names and not a "unified Slavic language".

I wasn't aware of the fact that there was such a thing as a unified "Slavic" language". Care to elaborate on that?
The question that springs to mind is "why should they carry two names" ? In said towns, particularly in and around Cottbus, everything is done to accomodate the Sorb minority. Being from Berlin, I know the area quite well and never felt that there was an urge for independence of Sorbian land or issues regarding equality. For as long as I can remember travelling to Cottbus I remember the double language signs.
On the Polish side of the border in Silesia there have also been developments in recent years with towns displaying both, Polish and German names, on the entry signs when driving into the town / villages.
I am not sure which issue you are trying to raise. Personally I feel that on both sides of the border the right measures are being taken to accomodate everyone and all minorities.

History / The story about German- Polish reconciliation [194]
There is absolutely no way that you are German, at least in my opinion. And if you are German, then you are a very narrow-minded German. Why? Because if you had any clue about Eastern Germany and it's relation to it's next door neighbours you wouldn't have used "Polish brothers" and "East German Nazis" in one sentence. Just for you to understand .......... there are now cities and villages that grow together as one on both sides on the border and are happy to do so. There are festivals either close to the border or on the borderline which are attended by the local youth of both countries. Silesian towns are using German names on their name plates when driving into them just as East German towns still use the German / Sorbs signs at railway stations and names signs of towns and cities.
Only an idiot would call him that, someone who does not know what the powers of the German president really are. A German certainly wouldn't call him that knowing that he has literally no influence whatsoever.
You may talk about the past while others look to the future. Polish / German relations are at a high. Germany has recognized Poland as one of the most valuable members of the EU on numerous occasions and will continue to do so. Germans are highly appreciated in Poland and have been since I first visited Poland by myself (without my parents) in the late 1990's. If you wish, continue to talk about "time needed" and "nazi cliques" but don't be surprised when some day you wake up in reality.
Exactly! That is why I find it hard to believe that above posters are German. Everyone knows that the German president is a 250k a year job to shine, smile but have nothing to say job.
I would be happy if they call us Germans in the future brothers, because times are changing. The only problem that I can see are the stubborn Neo-Nazis in the East of Germany. They are disgusting.

I like President Reverend Gauck though. His powers are very limited and I certainly wouldn't call him a warmonger.
Only an idiot would call him that, someone who does not know what the powers of the German president really are. A German certainly wouldn't call him that knowing that he has literally no influence whatsoever.
However, time is needed for a true reconciliation. There was too much conspiracy against Poland by Frederic the Great in the 18th century, not even mentioning Hitler and his nazi clique.

That didn't work out as planned because companies started to look for loopholes.
The idea though was not bad. Unfortunately it was exploited and ruined.

Like I said, it is very likely that your friends have not told you the whole story but it more than unlikely that she was offered a 1 Euro job without any additional benefits such as social welfare. I can understand why your friends may not want to tell everyone the whole story. Noone likes to be on benefits and then tell the world about it.
Germany could not recognize the border until 1990. It was only when Germany got re-united when the border was finally and officially recognized. Why?

And Poland wanted Germany to finally accept the Oder-Neisse-Border.
