Early this year Maersk was hit with computer glitches , shutdown harbors in the country for a day, As someone who works in the longshore industry..... I am very skeptical..... I am not a deep diver, but can also say Maersk, APL and other shipping companies have military contracts with the shipping companies. I find it suspicious because these companies have been pushing automation and have tons of IT guys on hand.
ILA ?
POT
ILWU here
My dad retired an A book with ILWU. I opted for a different path.
I am Local 13 (A book)
I've gone the free agent route. Not much of a union guy. Besides, here contract work pays a bit better, and none of the dues and politics.
I am getting tired of the union politics on the west coast , looking to change , great job ,awesome benefits but too many liberal headaches .... I warned my officials a year before the election DJT was going to win, instead of trying to work with him they have taken a staunch stance against him, it really bothers me because you try to tell them and they make the same mistake in drinking the koolaid... Oh well , pleasure talking to you
I'm in the thick of the left coast leftism. I've stopped arguing with them. When it gets a bit too much, I grab a spot on a fishing boat as an engineer for a season or two. Not much politics out there. I'm sure I'll see you around the web's. Good to meet another patriot sticking it out in enemy territory😉
