We’ve had food trucks come a few times a month in the evening for as long as I’ve been here minus a hiatus during covid. I never heard of any mids buying from them (Gotta save $$ for the weekend) but I guess enough do for it to be profitable. Sometimes there are food trucks during lunch outside the Mid Store lot and I’ve seen officers buy from them but never mids.
Lunch is mandatory Mon-Fri and with the new Dant so is breakfast Mon-Thurs. Much of the Brigade is unhappy with the new breakfast requirement, myself included. One more mando event, and most of the food goes to waste because many mids don’t even eat breakfast or don’t like the powdered egg fare. My plebe year we had 2 mandatory breakfasts per week and that was ended in 2019 to save money and improve lunches and dinners, so you can imagine the effects now. Now that my rant is out of the way, I do understand the new Dant’s reasoning (not that it matters whether I do). There were zero Brigade meals last year and 3/4 of the Brigade is in a new company, so it’s supposed to build back camaraderie. Just wish it could be done when I’m no longer half-asleep and over something other than a thawed Eggo pancake.
Study break over.
@Skipper07 if you’re reading this, hope Six Weeks is going well.
