President of the Longshoreman’s Union (ILA); nice work if you can get it

So the port strike is over and looks like the longshoreman did well; Dockworkers strike suspended, tentative agreement includes 62% pay raise over 6 years

So maybe this guy is worth his pay?

From the WSJ –

Bentley Drivers of the World, Unite! Meet the union boss making $900,000 who shut down U.S. ports.

Mr. Daggett could have been a character from the 1950s movie classic “On the Waterfront.” While presenting himself as a man of the people, the union chief made more than $900,000 last year. The New York Times reported in 2017 that he owned a 76-foot yacht and rode around in a Bentley luxury car.
