I doubt I would ever employ anyone again. Just too much hassle, but if I did I would take on a Polish worker.

Over the last few weeks I have had experience dealing with both Polish and English. Example : picked up sons new bike for Christmas. Polish guy, very helpful explains all we need to know and insists on carrying it out to the car. All with a smile and polite manner. English girl on desk where we pay, sullen, unhelpful, shoves debit card at me without saying a word. Clearly doesn't want to be there. Hands over reciept whilst looking and talking to her mate.

On the few occasions I feel the need for fast food when a Pole hands me my burger at the drive through I don't feel like a grumpy old man who has to say 'thank you' very loudly as the English bint virtually throws the food at me and slams the window shut. Always a polite service from the Polish server.

****. I am turning into Victor Meldrew !
