It's a bitch for employers when the workers have unique skills and
aren't easily replaced.

Unique skills? I wonder what kind of an apprenticeship program you have to go through to drive a forklift?

Besides. Costing the U.S. economy a couple billion dollars a day isnt chump change.

If you want to live long enough to get a paycheck, you'll learn there is
a lot more to longshoring than driving a forklift.

I'm surprised that CNN would say this wasn't healthy for the current administration.

Do not even need to have a GED. They are mostly forklift drivers. Not a
lot of training to prevent you from killing yourself or others.

I'm waiting on a part for my patio heater that's stranded in this strike. Sounds like I may have it for next winter.

I never said it wasn't dangerous workHarry, but it's not astronaut training either. Common sense is the rule.
