"Someone please explain the duties of a longshoreman."

They operate cranes and forklifts. Other than that, they mostly threatened to strike every few years like professional sports players. I have a female in-law who joined their union back around 1990 at over $60,000 a year to move boxes around. She's well over six figure now for doing the same arranging. Nice gal, though.
