      If true, this is literally the first time I’ve seen a news break faster on WSB than anywhere else.

    2. I am generally on the side of workers and unions. But when I watched the interview with the ILA president, looking and sounding like a 3rd-rate captain on The Sopranos, with his $10k gold chain, talking about how dock work is dangerous and he’s recently seen two dockworkers killed, I thought, Hmmm, maybe automation isn’t a bad idea in this case.

      Damn, I was really hoping to see Harold shut down the malls before Prime Day on October 8. My AMZN Calls would PRINT

    5. Reminder: negotiations between the union and ports were actually negotiations between the Italian Mafia (the union) and the Drug Cartels.

      Docks closed meant a lot less money being made.

      Of course it was going to end quickly.

    6. Now they start the “much needed maintenance” to the ports. Aka automation framework.

    7. That right there was a planned strike. They already had the deal worked out on the back end, just needed to let the boys go walk to picket line for a few hours so they felt like the union did something for them.

    8. oh no bears! ![img](emote|t5_2th52|4271)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4267)![img](emote|t5_2th52|4276)
