Florida turnpike was one of my customers a few years ago. We had several discussions about how they were making life easier for truckers to facilitate more commerce through the ports.

From another article, supposedly the union Crane operators in Cali get paid 200k, take 2 hour lunch breaks together so the activity stops completely. If the truck drivers complain about the operators , they face reprisals.
