I hope that you are at least getting paid.

I'm the one who pay. You know, private business thing and all that stuff.

how's the sugar situation in Russia?

No problems at all. Usually you could meet with lack of shugar in groceries in the fall of summer, when many people buy a lot to cook a jam from berries. You need ~1kg of shugar for a 1kg of berries, and we have a lot of berries at the summer fall. As you might know, now is early spring here and no berries. So no excess need for shugar.
