about gettin a job? is that what you mean.

If you want to just go for the summer next year and work as a waitress or something like that you'll be fine, also there's still jobs in IT and software design, but for anything connected with finance/banking/property/construction then stay here because you probably won't find a sniff of work.

And if you mean about being Polish in Ireland then no, of course not...I've never heard of a xenophobic attack on a Pole..sure Poles have been attacked, a couple were killed too, but it wasn't to do with their nationality, more to do with them being in the wrong place at the wrong time

Since they say "as a Pole" I assume they think their nationality might be a problem - it won't. As Smurf says, a minority of thugs and a$$holes that you get in every country but no real issues. I have Polish friends who have been living in Ireland for the past 7 or 8 years. No problems or concerns. In fact, a few of them say that they now prefer it here to Poland.

The Irish tend to be quite hospitable but even smaller dogs can bite ;) ;) There are some that will make a Pole a scapegoat and we all know about the guilty by association concept and how it is applied. In short, I'd be careful but you will be fine in most places.
