Doesn’t seem hard to replace port workers. It’s not something that would require a specialized skill set. Imagine that weighs in on this

I just left Costco and they were out. The whole back section was cleared out.

Local Sams (and every other store for that matter) is wiped clean of toilet paper, paper towels, etc. Similar to covid times. It's unbelievable. Certifiably crazy family member waited a fricking hour to check out at Sam's this morning. Fricking stupid.

Unfortunately I actually NEED toilet paper and paper towels. I only have a handful of rolls on hand. Now I gotta deal with stupid people....

Something just seems fishy about this. Surprised the stock market isn't reacting to it. Makes me think there is something going on behind the scenes we don't know.
the workers have already been offered a ridiculous package. This thing will not last too long.

Picked up PPC stock a couple of weeks ago.

It has been moving pretty steadily the past week week and half $43-$48

Which would make sense with ports closing and them being a mainland producer of chicken.

Just one observation from today.

Maybe but they did reject that ridiculous package earlier so you think more will be offered?

Better get your a-hole vaccinated before you use it.

Yeah, the issue was less about that and more about robots checking containers.

Sure would be great if the robots that inspected everything coming into our country were owned by a fricking chinaman

Which makes no sense since they are typically stockpiled and can be stored a long time. Many grocery stores chains have their own banana warehouses scattered across the country loaded with unripe bananas. They store them in separate bays, and when the contents of one is needed, they pump in gas to start the ripening process.

Toilet paper is made in the US so it is really dumb that people are "stocking up" on toilet paper.
