Aren’t there many other ports between Maine and Texas that we could use as a back up? They report forty ports shutting down. Surely that’s not the only major ports in our country. (But I have no idea) East Coast, West Coast, Great Lakes, and Inland ports on the rivers (Montgomery, St. Louis, Shreveport, etc..) .

I understand the guy has a fiduciary duty to the union, but telling the American people you're gonna intentionally cripple the economy while wearing a bunch of gold jewelry isn't the best look for the unions. https://x.com/EndWokeness/status/1840978352997306404Phuck that dude, he needs his pc of shat head caved in.
If you’re a common sense person, you probably don’t feel you have a home in this world right now. If you’re a Christian, you know you were never meant to.

This could make the shortages due to Covid seem like a small blip. This has the potential to absolutely cripple the country.

Most of y’all are too young to remember the PATCO strike. What did Reagan do? He fired all 12000. I remember that well!!!! It took awhile to replace them, but turned out ok in the end.

I read where the president of the union at the Mobile port said most folks can’t do his job,he misses birthdays and anniversaries and even Alabama football games,is he so stupid to think that most folks with real jobs miss all of these things?Ive been on a shutdown at our mill and have had 1 day off since august,Everyone that works any kind of mill job or shift work are gonna miss things like that,it’s called stepping up and being a man and doing what needs to be done for you and your family. I’ve heard that the crane operator who has the most seniority has to turn down overtime first. They don’t and make over six figures a year. Ever gets to the newest guy.

Wonder if Port Birmingham could handle some of it.

All the West coast ports are open. This only affects Atlantic and Gulf, and there are still non-teamster companies keeping things going just slower. This is more tv than anything. Plus, governors can call in the guard to run the ports if they drag it out too long.

40 year teamster! that guy is a POS!! Will you guys cross the picket line to get what’s sitting on the docks now, or y’all just comply with that POS also? Would you pick up loads at non union ports?
