George and the Germans

George was a pirate, but he wasn’t a very good pirate.

Still, he did his best for his ship, joining raiding parties and fending off rival pirates.

Until the captain sold to a German pirate consortium.

Which outsourced the work to cheaper Russian pirates.

George sat in port, stuck in endless planning meetings.

“When will we go out again?” asked George.

The owners told him to shut up and train.

A lot of his old crew mates got bored and quit for better challenges.

George trained their replacements.

Until one day, George left, too.

And sailed off to new lands.
