Poor little ILWU, are you upset that your “work safely” plan to pressure the Employers backfired because Dean mcGrath and Roger Boespflug got their Local 23 members too excited and they went too far, dropping production to 8 moves per hour?
The International’s press release makes the ILWU look like a bunch of sniveling cry babies, who got their hand caught in the cookie jar and are trying to blame everyone else for their screw up.
Oakland has now joined the work safely program along with LA/LB, but the only ones that worked safely enough to get fired are in Tacoma.
PMA sent all the longshoremen in Tacoma home last night, right before lunch.
Dueling memos, what’s next?
Can you spell Taft-Hartley?
