Poles hard working or just born lazy.

I would have taken any job if the need occurred to put bread on the table and worked the job well, no matter the level of salary:

1. Because I took the job, that means working it to the best of my abilities.

That's just you,to me the deal is simple,you pay minimum,expect minimum.Sometimes we got to do what we got to do but that's not the reason to get all excited about getting little money for a lot of work.In my case the employer would get an employee with a very low morale determinated to change the job a.s.a.p.

Some jobs just pay minimum wage, accept it, it is better to earn for your own self esteem than be on benefits.

Who wants to get locked into a low life of being unemployed.

How is it low life?As a unemployed person on benefit one has all that time for himself and can enjoy life full time without having to spend a third of his life in some cappy warehause or dodgy factory.That's no brainer.

You have taken my quote out of context, I was NOT specifically referring to working in Poland, I was focusing on the point, I would have taken any job if the need occurred to put bread on the table and worked the job well, no matter the level of salary:

That's the problem, you wrote about something that has little to do with Poland and the issue of people in Eastern Europe screwing their employers over when they make minimum wage.

As an unemployed person, capable of working you are scum of the earth living off the underbelly of hard working tax payers, people like you Silvernag, make me want to vomit, your parents should be ashamed of you. You typify everything that is wrong with todays society " the moral-less me society

Midas, the issue here is why do Poles bust their balls in the UK or USA for minimum wage,

I am sorry but how is it any better?It's not

As a unemployed person on benefit one has all that time for himself and can enjoy life full time without having to spend a third of his life in some cappy warehause or dodgy factory.

Of course it is, ya creep. Pay yer own way. The taxpayer is skint.

A good worker wont be working too long in a "cappy warehause or dodgy factory" for too long. Eventually he/she will be given a promotion. Then another, then another.

I meant how is it better for ME?

I still take a walk on the beach over the shift at Mc Donalds for the same money at any day.

You are being very optimistic.

A good worker wont be working too long in a "cappy warehause or dodgy factory" for too long. Eventually he/she will be given a promotion. Then another, then another.

You notice a hard working intelligent worker and you try and develop him/her with training, courses, respect, promotion and with decent pay.

unfortunately this seems to have bypassed silbernagel...

Midas, the issue here is why do Poles bust their balls in the UK or USA for minimum wage, then as soon as they return to Poland, its back into the old ' red and white routine ' My opinion, most Poles believe when they go to the UK or USA they start from zero and they have the possibility of opportunity, when they return to Poland they slot back into old routine of why bother because no one else is. It is not that Poles are lazy in general, only in Poland are they lazy, due to the " nie moge" attitude.

Again you're missing my point. Compare and contrast what you can actually buy in UK or US for 2 minimum wages

Start with gasoline, next look into real estate prices.

Not at all. I come from a very small to medium sized business owning family. You notice a hard working intelligent worker and you try and develop him/her with training, courses, respect, promotion and with decent pay.

Why not turn the table around

That will motivate you lot to work.

feeling high and mighty today ?
