Roughly half of the longshoremen are making $150,000 or more per year. They want a 77% pay increase AND modernization through automation halted.
So, let me get this straight, you want your pay & benefits to increase from $150,000 per year to $265,500 per year AND you want to stifle modernization of dock loading and unloading processes because you don't want to be competitive in your workplace?
I know this is easier said than done, but this union needs to be kicked to the curb and replacement workers need to be hired and trained to use thoroughly modern, automated processes.
