You have to admit that Polish workers are far superior to their English counterparts. We are employing 2 at this very moment who work their nuts off for 35 squid a day. We dont even encourage them to stop for tea breaks, because they are quite happy to carry on labouring whilst they eat their sarnies. We employed a couple of students last week and they were dire, they expected proper breaks, did not understand the meaning of hard work and thought we were exploiting them. Right stroppy gits - what sort of degrees are media studies and sociology anyway.

eastern european workers are great.

The language barrier can be a bit of a problem at times!! Our distribution centre employs a few and too often we recieve the wrong products or sometimes never recieve them

You can't generalize. I've seen other types of Polish workers as well, and there are every type of British worker out there - very good, and downright awful.

fact.

If you were ina foreign country and had one chance to make your life work you would probably work your balls off too. They should be damn grateful they are given a job over here at all.

But at the same time they are robbing you blind and scamming cash points on their days off if they are not smuggling sex slaves into basement flats in Brunswick square. It's true I tell you, I read it in The Argus

Is that not what the unions fought to stop many years ago, exploitation of the working man.

By employing them we are going back in time to the days of the 1920s when the man who would work for the least wages got the job.

I did a relief in a pub last year and one of the customers, who worked, in the past tense, for Adenstar, was one of the many tradesmen that they sacked in order to give the jobs to eastern europeans ona self employed, get paid when you work basis rather employ direct labour trademen. Is that progression, I dont think so.

The problem some people have with Polish workers is that they work very hard, earn money, live off Lidl baked beans for two years, send all their money home, pay reduced rate rent, exempt from council tax, get tax back and tax relief, put no money back into our economy and f*** off back to Poland where the money they earned can afford them a great life. While we pay through the noses for all kinds of taxes and rising living costs, struggle to pay rent or mortgages and raise families.

Personally I am more angry with our government for ignoring us and helping them. Can't really blame someone for taking advantage of our weak government policies.

When you compare them to certain large tracts native Northern Irish, where managing to get disability benefit is seen as an art form (14% last time I checked?) they must seem superhuman :lolol::lolol:

Sorry, maybe I am missing something, but in what way do they 'pay reduced rent'? And how are they exempt from coucil tax, and how do they get tax relief? I'm not necessarily saying that these things aren't true, but I've never heard of this before.

I went intoa Tesco store recently and a polish registered car was having 3 litre bottles of Tesco cheap cooking oil put into the fuel tank so presumably they ran the car on that. One chap hada large trolley full of bottles of oil another was pouring it in and a lady was putting the empty bottles into another trolley. cost about 25p per litre.
 






Let it also not escape note, that the hourly rate over here gets them about 3 times what they'd make in Poland, and the money goes further - so they can take their earnings back there and buy a house quite quickly, while anyone else doing the same job will have to work 20 years and save to do the same thing.

The lesson here, is to save as much as possible and then go to a '3rd world country' and spend it.
