Original Message These guys can get a bit rough.

It's the clerks (who I once read can make 100K/yr) who are striking, but

"...Perhaps even more significant than the picket line was that the longshore union that loads and unloads ships at port was honoring it and refusing to work at the terminal..."

A picket line has shut down the APM Terminal at the Port of Los Angeles, shown above. The International Longshore and Warehouse Union's Local 63 Office Clerical Unit, which handles paperwork involved in the loading and unloading of vessels at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach, is trying to prevent the outsourcing of its jobs.
