>Reskilling is not in their best interest.
Only because they think their job will still be around. You can only prop up an industry with inefficient fake jobs for so long, and dock workers are getting near the end of that cycle.
>The only way to buy these people out is to set them up for life
Or just let them fail when their job is eliminated. Having some plan to step down the number of employees gradually through buy-outs, retirement, and reskilling, is the better option.
- shortrounddev2 2y agoYeah the best solution is to automate the docks, but these unions are very politically powerful, which is why their jobs still exist in the first place. It's also a bad look for a democratic president to bust unions so if Kamala wins then I think these guys are safe for another 4 years. I don't think their strategy is sustainable, but I don't think it will be very simple to get rid of them
