you should be reminding the millions of Poles that are leaving every single year and settling down in different nations and enhancing them
No, I should not be reminding them anything. They remember well enough who they
are and leaving is a very difficult decision for most of them.
I will give you just one example - my friend got his master's degree in Geography
6 years ago. For his master's thesis work about Polish railway system in Pomerania
he got a government distinction awarded by the Minister of Transport. The only
job that he could find at the time was in a hotel's reception for about 600PLN
(there were no administrative or teaching jobs available in our region then).
So, he went to Ireland. Works as a waiter there. A shame? A humiliation?
Maybe - but he bought himself a brand new appartment in our home town
(already repaid the credit taken for it) and managed to save enough to
come back to Poland this year. If he stayed, he would never be able to
buy it, or in best case scenario if he got a steady job he would be stuck
with mortgage for 20 years or so.
Can you blame him for leaving? Do you even feel in a postition to criticise him?
If you answered 'yes' to those questions then we have nothing else to talk about.
