“Before the war there were so many plans… I wanted to do a lot for myself, for my family. Time — that’s my biggest problem. Not fatigue. Time itself.”

Says serviceman Roman (name changed). Before the war he worked in marketing and, according to him, earned more than $5 thousand a month.

Then he spent three years on combat duty, serving as a combat medic. Now he serves in Kyiv, where his wife and two children live. His salary is about 30 thousand hryvnias, and that’s not enough to support the family.

So after his shift Roman doesn’t go home. He goes to drive a taxi.

And this is not just about being tired from having to work a second job. Roman regrets that he is again losing the time he could be spending with his children.

Stories of other servicemen who, because of low financial support in the rear, are forced to look for side jobs — in a video by Oleksandra Fedorko.

«До війни було безліч планів… Хотілося багато зробити для себе, для родини. Час – це для мене найбільша проблема. Не втома. Саме час»

Каже військовий Роман (ім’я змінене). До війни він працював у маркетингу і, за його словами, заробляв понад $5 тисяч на місяць.

Потім три роки був на бойових, служив бойовим медиком. Тепер служить у Києві, де живуть його дружина і двоє дітей. Зарплата – близько 30 тисяч гривень, і на життя родини цього не вистачає. 

Тому після служби Роман їде не додому. Він їде таксувати. 

І тут вже мова не лише про втому через вимушену другу роботу. Роман шкодує, що знову втрачає час, який міг би провести зі своїми дітьми. 

Історії інших військових, які через низьке грошове забезпечення в тилу змушені шукати підробіток, — у відео Олександри Федорко.

That moment when you make the subjects of corruption scandals nervous 💫 First Mindich, who was worried that all kinds of “journalists, shmunalists” were breaking into the estates in Kozyn 👀 And then Kropyva, who was searching for himself in our story about Glacier 😏 But finding the estates in Kozyn, which later became known as “Dynasty,” or making three full episodes about the same Glacier would have been much harder without your support. Thank you to everyone who is already with us ❤️ And if...

“I promised not to cover anyone” or “I will come for each one personally” — remember those pompous statements by Kravchenko? But he never did come for some regional prosecutors whom he himself appointed. Although there are plenty of questions for them 👀 For example, Oleg Tkalenko, the chief prosecutor of Vinnytsia region. Before that he spent almost 5 years as deputy head of the Kyiv region prosecutor’s office. During that period his relatives bought real estate in Kyiv with a market value of m...
