Do you work? Where?

I'm a labor law specialist / hr upper tier manager.

Are there many office jobs in Poland? genuinely surprised to see someone with a legal background with your flag. I thought most of your economy is just construction and handymen

I am blue collar worker, unionist and socialist

>>213996785
Of course, most of them are office Jobs.

>>213996813
And you lost me. That's just not true. Poland is mostly blue collar.

>>213996841
If you say so.

>>213996789
Hello mr. Untouchable, unions here are like holy cows in India

>>213996785
I refuse to believe I share these boards with retards like you
When there's people, there must be law
fuck I can't believe I replied to you

IT support

>>213996898
I think you're misunderstanding, he's talking about poland

>>213996898
You really think poland has a genuine legal system? Eastern europe is the capital of corruption and show trials all the way down. There might be some legal magistrates that got their position due to family connections, but there is not really a need for "legal experts" like in countries with a rule of law

>>213996959
In Poland the dominant employment sector is the service sector, which accounts for approximately 63.7% of all employed persons. The second largest sector is industry, followed by agriculture.

>>213996969
Oh boy

>>213996994
Logical if you realize that handyman work is considered a service. "Service sector" does not mean "white collar"

>>213997017
>It's difficult to pinpoint the exact percentage of Poles who are office workers, as official statistics often categorize employment by sector (e.g., public vs. private) or occupation type (e.g., manufacturing, service) rather than directly by office work. However, we can infer that a significant portion of Poland's workforce is employed in office-based roles, given the country's economic structure and the size of its private and public sectors

>>213997136
Thanks ChatGPT now fuck off. Do you use ChatGPT for your "difficult" polish legal work?

Interesting. In America, labor law is a declining specialty because of the diminishing relevance of unions

I work in the archives. Decent chunk of my time is spent servicing boomers who want to learn about their great-great-great grandpa Jonas Pūpenšartas who was the richest farmer in a village with a population of 3 (sheep included) and university students

I don't work rn, in the past I've had a few shitty hospitality jobs in kitchens and stuff.

Most young people here go into trades or hospo if they dont go to uni

I now work on building private jets, all the piping systems (like hydraulics ,air conditionment), also part of the crew that attach the wings to the fuselage.

>>213997169
I don't but I scoff at your anger over the simple fact that you were proven wrong. You're very immature. I get young people like you on job interviews, thinking they're smart and than getting all emotional when proven wrong. I wouldnt be suprised if you were a woman or under 18.

>>213997276
Sounds very cool, how did you get the job?

i worked as a car mechanic for a couple of years before becoming totally disillusioned with modern society and now i just neet my life away

I sent my resume since I knew they were hiring and offering "training" for the position thanks to the labour shortage. Despite no experience in aeronautical proper, you can learn most of it on the job.
It is indeed pretty cool. I get to work inside a clean building instead of breathing toxic gasses in a papermill and for a good pay, and planes are pretty cool. You just have to contort yourself to reach some small spaces sometimes.
Quality control is also very strict so you can't half ass your work or else they will get you later down the production line to fix your shit, but that's reassuring all in all

>>213997316
Dude, this Dutch guy is already a meme here, he constantly posts this kind of stuff about how eastern Europe is backwards, corrupt etc. He does it obviously for provocation (because he knows it's guaranteed responses from people like you) though he also probably believes it to some degree and also - to some degree he's right because comparing to NL we're obviously a corrupt country, though probably also not AS much as your typical westie imagines it to be.

holland is a tax heaven narco state where cafe shops buy weed illegally for billions of euros each year then re-sale it legally lol
there is less of that east euro city mayor builds a new holiday house from tax payer money kind of corruption there but does not mean there is no corruption

Associate Prof at a public uni. I have 60 papers, 20 of them first named, the rest as corresponding author or co-authors. About 1/4 of them are in Q1 tier journals. I also have 2 patents. I've had more than 20 Msc students and 5 phd students graduated under me. Been teaching uni for about 20 years now.

How is the pay, got to slay any pupil pussy?

>>213998400
>holland is a tax heaven narco state where cafe shops buy weed illegally for billions of euros each year then re-sale it legally lol
Yes but this kind of corruption doesn't affect the common man while
>city mayor builds a new holiday house from tax payer money
this affects him a lot, so perception is different

>>213998400
also, what's worse about corruption in eastern Europe is that everyday corruption that is basically part of culture and we don't even see that as corruption
like you give a "gift" to a doctor/nurse in a public hospital for treating you or giving more attention to your family member, even though it's their fucking duty they get paid from our taxes for.
or that to get a job in public administration or state-owned enterprises, especially in smaller towns, you must simply know right people and then your skills and knowledge don't matter at all
this stuff is very common in EE

>Yes but this kind of corruption doesn't affect the common man while
both of them are like tax dodging. arguably the worst effect of corruption that increases or encourages violence

>like you give a "gift" to a doctor/nurse in a public hospital for treating you
that used to be extremely common place here but the government banend it a few years ago. every now and then you hear a doc getting busted for it so not sure how common it is anymore

> you must simply know right people and then your skills and knowledge don't matter at all
i think this is pretty common everywhere though

but large company corruption is quite frequent is western europe too thats why i dont like when people pretend there is no corruption there. look at siemens alone how many corruption cases they had over time that involved billions of euros

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Siemens_Greek_bribery_scandal

>>214000052
my conspiracy theory is that bribery is common and only gets discovered when it is getting on the nose of governments and intel agencies too much
the volkswagen scandal was probably an intel agency attack from america that meant to weaken/destroy the euro auto industry

>>214000324
I work at a travel agency as a sales operator. Our company works with hotels all over Europe, and I can tell you that bribery in the hotel industry, especially large chains like Sheraton and Hilton is more common than legally doing business.

>>214000052
all of these are Siemens doing corrupt deals OUTSIDE Germany, they just know that when in Rome do as the Romans do - when you come to a corrupt shithole, you must bribe everyone else because that's how it is there
But it doesn't mean Germany itself is more corrupt because of that, as Siemens doesn't do that there.

i work a normal blue collar job at a lumber mill,4-9 months a year,minimum of 18 k a year for 4 months,but have a masters degree in hydro powerplant operations engineer,never done a hour that job after i finished my masters

How did you get to that position? Sounds cosy.

I work for the masketta man

>>214000656
Why are you doing this blue collar shit instead of your speciality? I thought you invite Asians and Africans to to cut woods and thus the wages are depressed there

>>214000732
or maybe they just don't have corruption as much as we do and that's why they are rich and we are poor?
food for thought

>>214000978
South Korea and the USA are corporations masquerading as countries but they are doing just fine, just recently Trump legalzied ALL foreign bribery for American companies. The USA also legalized bribery of politicians as lobbying and the other country suppressed competition within its own market and gave all the handouts it could to megacorps, it's effectively impossible to get sentenced for anything as a CEO in SK

>>214000978
yeah like when facebook bought a vpn app for 120 mil usd and turned it into a surveillance tool to spy on the contact list of the users for years which helped them to buy whatsapp and break the encryption of snapchat? imagine if a german or chinese company tried to do the same in america? siemens do not get prosecuted in germany because it is the interest of germany, regardless of party that siemens act as this giant conglomerate cartel around the world and brings in revenue for germany

QUESTION TO WESTERNERS
what do you think when you see buildings of different height next to each other? does it give you "shithole vibe"? I know Germanics hate it and in their streets all houses are always of equal height and if there is a lower house they will always build an additional floor to make it as tall as all the buildings in a row. I know Germanics who come to Poland often report the feeling of chaos and unease due to how common it is here that houses in one streets differ in height like by a lot (and in Łódź these examples can be extreme):

What about other westerners? Does this pic trigger your architectural autism?

>>214001142
>regardless of party that siemens act as this giant conglomerate cartel around the world and brings in revenue for germany
but the point is that it doesn't do it in germany
it's just like Germany was a country with stricly followed rule of law in 19th century even though at the same time in German colonies in Cameroon or Namibia people where whipped and got their limbs cut off for a minor case of misconduct with no right to appeal

>Where?

>>214001285
do you have stocks?

>>214001237
every major project in germany gets delayed by years and end up costing 3x as much as first estimated so im not sure about corruption there honestly

>>214001364
it doesn't have to be related to corruption, it's our eastern mentality to see every case of miscalculation, delay or just technical problems as corruption.

>>214001405
Nigga, the most developed countries in the Western world are: USA, Luxembourg and Switzeland, each one is corrupt as fuck and fucks over everybody else. It's just bizarre that Poles love to slurp that Western semen so much that they will rather consider themselves subhumans that acknowledge problems in the lands of their masters

I was hired at a hr manager but got promoted twice. Well "got" is a bad word. I went to a meeting with the Board Director with prepared presentations on what I did and said I need a higher position because I already have that responsibilities on me.

It sucks to be honest. I love diving and it's my passion in life but NEVER mix your hobbies with your work-life... My body is fucked, my hands are fucked, my eyes are fucked to the point where I need surgery in a few years.
I'm trying to retire in 3-4 years but with the current state of everything I guess I'll die on the job...

so corruption or general incompetence, does it matter? hungary is ultra corrupt which bothers me of course but the bigger problem is the general incompetence. if the government was competent but corrupt things would be much better

Yeah the death rate in the position is what? 15% of underwater welders? It's ogre beyond reason, here im standing up every hour not to get hemorroids like some workers or keeping the pc screen at the right height to help my back and you're literally risking getting torn to pieces in a instant because of some tiny spark. Stay safe mam, stay safe and I wish you a nice retirement and until than safety.

>>214001735
i dontk now about that. its better to have a competent government that gets things done than an incompetent government that is technically not corrupt imo
the problem is when the gov is both incompetent and corrupt like in here

>>214001894
Can't you just switch to diving suit instructor instead ? That's what a friend did, before eventually coming back to welding (on land) because he liked it

>>214002332
>>214002494
I'd happily change jobs but truth be told I am good at one thing and that is diving. Even my welding skills are pretty average. Plenty of instructors and stuff around but very few actual divers willing to do the job. And the salary is one hell of an incentive. I can earn anything from €6k to €11k per month in terms of salary and bonuses if I work full weeks. I know money is nothing compared to health but my dream is still to retire before 45 and just be comfy..

>>213997921
Can you just place vending machines wherever you want and no one bats an eye?

>>214002614
Yeah, it's mostly a job for divers first, welders second. Maybe try getting into inspection in underwater structures or water treatment plant as well? Or do you reckon the conditions are just as dangerous as an oil rig

I work from home for disney. boring tech operations job. bad pay.

your economy consists of prostitution and pedophilia

>>214002931
you do need permission. they were initially owned by my parents who also own multiple 24/7 stores, so they already had the connections

>>214002998
When it comes to commercial diving it's pretty even in terms of danger. From welding and construction to ship inspection to training students.
Sure, there's parts that are more dangerous in each profession but generally once you go below 18 meters you're in the zone where profession stops mattering. The depth wants to kill you no matter what and the human body just doesn't care for it.
But maybe one day I'll be teaching tourists how to scuba in the Bahamas while drinking rum on the boat myself. One can dream.
