    Re: planning to work in spain advice required

    Thats what the EC is all about Halwaya, free movement of labour, and if the work is here in UK, why not ??

    Just nearby where I live , the new Polish cultural and community centre has just been completed. It has come out really good and serving the Polish community.

    I think the same may be true of other cities. So , what you got to lose Hal.............get cracking looking up those jobs in the Jobs section !!!

    Good luck

    the last time i was in a start-up small company situation was 1987 -just ahead of the start of that recession

    DOH!!

    with all the money pouring into Poland via the EU-if you've wondered where your EU tax money goes look at the major road expansion recently

    I would stay esp considering the skill 'brain drain' Poland has had with those with skills to sell leaving poland as fast as their little polonez would carry them!!

    Got to agree with Abe there, after all in a few years time when the economy in Poland improves, some of us may find ourselves there.

    Good luck Hal

    Re: planning to work in spain advice required

    Thank you Aiyub and Richard
    Hehe Karl.. I think i won't jeopardize your business..

    I find it hard to get the job in my field as I have no experience..
    (and plus I am a girl) I've applied for some physical work in UK :>
    Maybe I will be lucky to find something better when I settle there.

    Re: planning to work in spain advice required

    Hi Guys

    just got back today from a week in the Costa sun at Torrox Costa. About 50k's north of Malaga.

    While I was there sampling a few of the local brews I took time to look into the local AC market - what a let down. Straight forward split install offered for 449 Euros - how can anyone make a living at those prices. A lot of it is the old R22 kit but - working in that heat for so little reward - forget it

    The whole work ethic is really different from the UK, and they drive on the wrong side of the road

    Re: planning to work in spain advice required

    Cze Halwaya!!!
    Moze powinnas Halwaya sprobowc szukac pracy jako "trainee position". Nieplaca nalepiej(jakies czternascie tys./rocznie), ale najwazniejsze jest zalapac kontakt i obyc sie z jezykiem). Szkoda skonczyc jako kelnerka, gary albo miotla itp. po studiach (spotkalem w Londku troche osob po studiach, ktorzy wykonuja najprostrze prace). Chyba jest lepiej nagrac prace przed przyjazdem przez neta-jest masa stron internetowych. Ja pracauje juz rok w Anglii (robote znalazlem przez neta), z ryskiem (kolesiem, ktory wlasnie Ci doradzal, zeby nie jechac(nie pisze jego imienia po ang. bo pomysli ze go obgaduje)). Robota jest spoko, troche sie znudzila, zaczynam szukac pracy w projektowaniu.

    Powodzenia

    Re: planning to work in spain advice required

    Sorry i reply in polish.. but well..

    Witaj klimek
    Dzięki za porady.. ja póki co 'nagrałam' sobie fizyczną i mało ambitną pracę w Anglii będąc jeszcze tutaj.. Wybrałam sobie zmianę nocną - więc nie będzie problemu, by w dzień na spokojnie latać i szukać czegoś lepszego. Mój aktualny pracodawca póki co zajmuje się wszystkim (od założenia rachunku w banku po wynajęcie mi mieszkania). Myślę, że to lepsze rozwiązanie niż wypad 'w ciemno' - bo ja niestety lubię wiedzieć na czym stoję.

    Cieszę się, że udało Ci się znaleźć pracę w zawodzie - ja miałam z tym problem (zwłaszcza, że nie miałam znajomości w odpowiednich miejscach) - nawet nie było możliwości 'odrobienia' stażu odpowiadającego mojemu wykształceniu - i tak wylądowałam robiąc za seketarkę w administracji rządowej (nudy, nudy, nudy).

    Myślę, że jak oswoję się z nowym miejscem.. to wówczas spróbuję trochę powalczyć o lepszy byt

    Życzę Tobie powodzenia w polowaniu na wymarzoną pracę i dziękuję za pomoc

    Pozdrawiam
    Dana vel halwaya

    The nice thing about the English language is that there is a lot of commonality with German, French and Spanish so that even if you do not speak the language, you can pick out key words and figure out what is said. I could not pick out a single common word in those Polish posts, and fear that if I were to try to pronounce some of those words, I would end up needing a doctor

    We have friends who although are Austrian, come from Argentina. We have been teaching them English, and they have been teaching us Spanish through our only common language...Pigeon Geman

    A little fish said to its mother, mother..........where is the ocean, please tell me..........

    The mother said, youre in it, its right before you.

    Work is like the ocean, you can never jeopardise anyones work, you can have your little pools to play around in, but the openness is vast and accomodating for everyone.

    All you need is to seek, spread your wings and explore......

    Re: planning to work in spain advice required

    Once I was in the beautiful city of Ottawa........it was late afternoon, evening............in the city centre open air market stalls.

    I saw these tiny spiders emerge, weave small intricate webs and sat in the centre of them waiting , just calmly sitting there and waiting......

    Made me think about nature, how everyones needs are catered for, all you need do is set up your web, the rest will follow.....

    Spiders dont cry about whether theres jobs about, they are proactive..........
