News / Dalai Lama says: "POLAND HAS RETAINED ITS SPIRIT" [77]

ok fair enough seanus but he is teaching the middle path more out of practicality than anything else. a direct uprising against the chinese will only result in a massacre and he realizes that. what else can he do?

News / Dalai Lama says: "POLAND HAS RETAINED ITS SPIRIT" [77]

no its cool seanus I didnt take it as a slight of the man at all. all public figures are open to critical analysis. nobody is pure. its a tough situation there in tibet thoug.

News / Dalai Lama says: "POLAND HAS RETAINED ITS SPIRIT" [77]

Law / Are Blackberry devices popular in Poland among business and individuals? [57]

Blackberries are the number one business phone for business people in warsaw for sure. The Iphone is a gadget which doesn't provide the same services as a blackberry. Most people here have phones which are given to them by the corporation they work for during their service at the company. The cellular providers often give the phones for free or have a rent to own feature while subsidizing the cost of the phones through the revenue generated by the service contract. When the zl was stronger many people were buying the blackberries from the states. As well the Iphone has many dead zones in the city.

Work / What jobs pay 10,000 zlotych per month? and Where can i find one? :o) [101]


I make that net when I am busy which means for around 8 - 9 months of the year. I do work long days for it though. I teach more hours than most teachers.

Work / What jobs pay 10,000 zlotych per month? and Where can i find one? :o) [101]

A benchmark of expected salary is useful for a teacher considering different options of where to teach. You can criticize teachers all you want but if not for teachers you probably wouldn't be able to read this or type your response. Some teachers do it for the money but that doesn't last. I enjoy teaching and also enjoying saving my money while doing it. Some teachers volunteer for free or even pay to volunteer to teach. That is fantastic if that is what makes them happy.
