LONG BEACH, California — Crane operators who belong to a powerful union and earn up to $250,000 a year transferring containers from ships to trucks are worsening the supply chain crisis that threatens Christmas by goofing off on the job, frustrated truckers told the Washington Examiner.
they assume one of those is hard because they think the finance bros are A. doing math and B. actually determining the risk/reward ratio. Moving a box from a ship to a truck they can understand, so it sounds easier than how they think investing works, although the opposite is true.
Also, being a crane operator is a blue-collar job that doesn't have the same status as white collar jobs. The finance nonce wears a suit and tie do naturally he should be paid more.
Lmao sure staring at a computer screen and reading numbers can be hard, but its got nothing over having outstanding kinesthetic visualization of the movement of multi-ton machines that could easily kill people and cause massive disruptions to the supply chain, and have the fine motor control to make the movement happens.
That sounds like it could be really stressful, it's a lot of responsibility... In other words it sounds like they've earned the quarter million dollar salary
