I think Poland stole form me or ripped me off guys. What a sh@y country. I worked just under two years remotely for a company in warsaw and recently went to the unemployment office in Lodz and not only did I have to wait a crapload of time but the lady was rude and condenscending to me saying some crap like I was supposed to know exactly what to sign on the dotted line before she started pointing it out to me as that is what the f@ing pay her for and not to sit there barrage customers Pollack style or else wtf do they pay you here for? anyway, she claims that I only would be qualified for 1100 zloty per month if I worked 2 years at a company straight otherwise its a meager 800 zloty per month. which is ridiculous how the f@k can you live off less than 200 dollars a month? ALso she claims if I start making money part time or freelance or some crap I am supposed to report it ot them or risk penalty? wtf so theyre gonna take it away if I make a couple of bucks on the side? is this how this primitive backward east euro country works? what a joke. and get this to kick it off the punchline, they only payd me 200 zloty. That is what the bank transfer said. I am not sure because I did not sign up from day one of the time my umowa o prace ended and did it some weeks before I realize no one is hiring me and I could use both health insurance and unemployment or if they actually double stole from me. Can anyone explain wtf is going on in this garbage they call a country? Accoridng ot this I am supposed to get like from 1300 to 1100 not from 1100 to 800 like she claimed:

So you want to make more money than the average working Pole, while doing f&ck all, and prefer to use as comparison a country that has a 2X higher cost of living?

How is Poland supposed to fund this generous program, especially when Sralec gets the word out to other people that you can skip working, and still make more money than the people that actually work? They tried this experiment in America during the pandemic. It led to historic inflation, and a lot of working people being pretty pissed off.

You do not get it bro. In USA they get literally up to like 4k dollars in unemployment compared to 200 dolalrs here that isnt even 2 times that is like 20 times more they get while the cost of living is only 2 times. do you know how to do math?

many things in poland ar emore expensive or same price as usa and even worse now due to inflation. do you know how much electornics like apple products cost in poalnd vs usa? apartments in warsaw for instance to rent cost more than most usa states outside major cities like san francisco.

from:

"The average person receives $378 a week in unemployment benefits, according to U.S. Labor Department data as of year-end 2019."
cnbc.com/2020/04/09/how-much-unemployment-will-i-get-that-depends-on-your-state.html

that is roughly 1600 dollars per month compared to what I get if they dont rob me again which would be 200 dollars (I got 50 the first payment) and cost of living is roughly same if not worse as this is the average in certian sattes people get up to like 4 grand per month in usa. ALso of note this was in 2019 I am sure it is even higher for average now.

In the state that I live in, the maximum weekly benefit from unemployment insurance is $504. The minimum is $124. This is NY state.

During the pandemic there were additional benefits paid out to the unemployed.

Nowhere do people get $4K.

Bottom line: you are an idiot for even framing the question the way you did, because Poland is a country that is far, far less wealthy than the United States and you are lucky to get anything. Don't like your small unemployment benefit, then move to Norway or Switzerland.

also of note unlike Poland they do not have to work at least one year or two to get any good ammount in usa:
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unemployment_insurance_in_the_United_States

"A worker must have worked for at least one quarter in the previous year. Workers are normally not eligible if they were temporary workers or paid under the table."
