After ?ÄúGazeta Wyborcza?ÄÌ (the biggest Polish independent newspaper): Polish roofers which had went to Ireland came back to Poland because they could earn more than in Ireland. They moved to Ireland because of new contract they got in Dublin ?Äï The biggest Tesco?Äôs storehouse ?Äï and 13 Euro/hour. Despite excellent hospitality that gave them Tesco they spent in Dublin only a few days because finally they got a much better offer in Poland ?Äï roofing the rebuilt soccer stadium of Lech Poznan.
I am not sure is it right to reject contract already signed (I suspect that Tesco wouldn?Äôt pay for Safe Pass and few days in a hotel without having a signed contract), and if it won?Äôt affect the opinion about Polish workers in Ireland. Anyway I am glad they can do their job in Poland, but also I am not sure how many stadiums they can build.
Polish newspaper dedicated a very enthusiastic article to them, but in my opinion that case is only an exception to the rule and it means nothing compared to thousands of Polish emigrants that arrive every day to Ireland.
I wish we were not forced to leave Poland and we were coming to Ireland because of beauty of this land, and not only because of money and lack of any perspectives in Poland, but it won?Äôt happen soon.
