Don't Panic RE Port Worker Strike

[drop_point]

If you've paid attention to the news, you're aware that there is a potential port strike coming in the next day or two. Be warned this could have some effect on importation of gun powder and brass we all use. Do not panic, but be aware there could be an impact.

Get your TP. lol!

You got to be kidding! This is exacting the kind of news that sends shooters into panic buying. Wait and see what happens if the election goes sideways. It's the world we live in today.

The election will be considered sideways no matter the outcome.

No TP is far worse than either administration can throw at us and imagine the run on bidet's !!!

I'm glad we live 20 minutes from a TP plant! All the employees have it squirreled away and can hook up your bottom to keep it wiped and stank-free!

sounds like more union labor that already makes over $50 an hour trying to squeeze more out of everyone, maybe the taxpayers can make the pension fund solvent like we just did for the teamsters per Biden.

I'm almost certain those folks make far more than any $50/hr

OMG what will I do????? Will my 5 AMGs and 2 Rolls Royces be delayed ? What about my Swiss chocolate??

 

[std7mag]

THAT'S why President house plant isn't going to get involved in the union negotiations!!
How better to get the quiet gun ban through than to make the gun powder disappear?

And you're too late!
I'm already panicking!!

Get your TP. lol!

It will be a sad day when we are down to importing that too....

I can deal with it as long as it happens on Brandon's watch.

My 6br brass is coming tomorrow, after nearly 6 months of waiting. Im good. Let em strike. But seriously, thats not good at all. Im 34, but holy crap. I cant recall a 5 or so year span that sucked so hard. Its just one thing after another, and its happening at break neck speed. Its getting to the point where I think im becoming desensitized to all the BS and just dont care. I have my family, and God. If I have to wipe my ass with a leaf or hand towel, so be it.

Maybe there is a market for adult diapers, the re-useable type, from cotton, washable! You know like them soft cotton baby diapers we used as babies!

Frank, you’re gonna make this crowd nervous if you keep talkin this diaper nonsense.
It could go either way!

You know in the old days they used to keep a bucket of corn cobs in the outhouse. You could also use them to make charcoal for making blackpowder.

I guess what I'm saying is; keep corn cobs on hand and you'll be able to handle either task, albeit with a bit more residue.

your right the crane operators are over $100 an hour.

I say fire them all and let the chips fall where they may. I am fed up with unions attempting to hold the country hostage. Its obvious the union doesn't give a crap about us why should we care about those crybabies? If they don't like their pay move on to something else. Hard to take them at face value when they want to restrict automation which helps cut costs. Keep in mind all of this is to extort more money out of "We the People"

Port of Houston dockworkers begin strike over wages and automation | Houston Public Media

Workers began walking picket lines early Tuesday in a strike over wages and automation, even though some progress had been reported in latest contract talks. The contract between the ports and about 45,000 members of the International Longshoremen’s Association expired at midnight.
