Corruption: a Ukrainian soldier officer made soldiers prepare and sell shawarma instead of fighting!
Corruption is when the state delivers something with obvious value
Proper use of funds is when the state is dedicated to murder
Preparing and selling tasty food or getting turned into dog food by Russian artillery, yeah that would be a hard choice.
Working food service sucks ass but it’s better than being dropped into a wood chipper

thank you, this is now my favorite post of yours
The fact that there is more than one makes my day!
Ukrainian Army bake sales to fund the next round of drones from AliExpress
MREs surely count as rhe military industrial complex, right? I doubt those are delicious though
Just stay away from the tuna. Everything else is edible with enough salt and hot sauce.
Wood is edible with enough salt and hot sauce
yeah the best MREs are “barely warmed meatloaf with skittles” and “barely warmed pasta with peanut butter”
The peanut butter was always better than the “cheese” wheel grease that usually comes with 'em
McDonald’s, Burger King, and a lot of other fast food brands make up a pretty significant amount of American soldiers diets, they’re all over military bases and there’s lots of special contracts with the DOD, MRE’s are eaten pretty rarely.
So really, an enormous amount of the food industry is also in the military industrial complex.
We were wrong all along, the real purpose of the military bases was to get American fast food companies a foothold in foreign countries.
We can demilitarize the United States, we just have to pitch is as a peace dividend for food trucks. The army corps of engineers shall install
tena hundreda thousand thousand grease traps!
Respect honestly, it’s a legit business instead of typical rent-seeking.
this is easier than war
citation fucking needed
Generally kitchens don’t have little flying bombs that go bzzz and come kill you.
unless you throw water in the fryer maybe
Inventing drones made out of ice cubes to buzz-bomb swarm the deep fat fryer to own the ruskies
Project Habbakuk 2.0
Edit: The only pun I can think of is habbacuck and that hardly works.
Uh I mean i cook food for a living and Id rather do that than get shot at in the mud, I wouldn’t say it’s “easy” but “easier than war”? Sure unless you’re also getting shot at while you cook
well there are cooks IN the army
I know someone who was a naval cook. He spent his entire enlistment making spaghetti
Half the military cooks now are contractors, so you don’t even have to wear fatigues to spend four years on a military base making spaghetti anymore.
But he did it on a boat so thats totally different.
I would fucking hate just making spaghetti
At my job we have two huge steam kettles that can cook 20Ib of dry pasta at once (well, more if we had a bigger colander but also that’s about the limit of my strength to carry) in one while the other is full of ice to cool it down. I can cook enough pasta to feed like 300-400 in an hour, easily, while doing other stuff
If ALL HE DID was pasta then I imagine he was making pasta for 3000+ per day
I think he also made the sauce, or at least i assume so. But according to him he made spaghetti every day for his entire enlistment
Amerikkkan Soldiers have the dietary palate of children (just assuming here that they’re amerikkkan)
Can’t believe they didn’t try to shake it up a bit like idk do some sesame linguini one day or like a cajun chicken pasta with a cream sauce another day but I guess I shouldn’t be surprised I cook better food with more variety for college students than sailors
With the quality of food I’m imagining honestly I’m surprised they didn’t just buy canned meat sauce
I’ll ask him if they used a canned sauce next time I talk to him. Do you want an update on it?
I think itd still be easier cooking in the army but only as long as you’re not also getting shot at
Getting shot at while cooking would probably be more difficult than shooting back though i agree
Sadly we can only read about it because he was found out, which probably means that this story doesn’t have a happy ending. That said, there are bound to be hundreds or thousands of little schemes that save some lives that we will happily never get to read about.
We must all condemn this Ukrainian who didn’t know his place, that being dying for American geopolitical aims.
CORRUPTION: A Ukrainian officer saved the lives of his subordinates by making them run a shawarma food stand instead of sending them to suffer and die in lonely agony on the modern battlefield!!
god i fukin love shawarma
Who doesn’t?
Interesting
I may make this at some point.
Well… there’s such thing as falafel wraps
Wait until they learn what American soldiers produce and sell
you can’t spell schwarma without w-a-r
The tweeter should go take his place then.
innovative
grindset
Shitty bit idea: every time there is Ukraine war news you act as a shawarma salesman
