Unfortunately the cuts at the saltwater barrier are going to cause job loss. I used to work at Calcasieu Locks and I got a call from a friend of mine last night asking if I knew of any job openings at the plants because it was about to get bad at the locks.
According to him, The hour change at salt water barrier is causing 1 eployee from there being moved to calc. locks. This causes the full crew at locks to compensate and have to each work a hitch in the yard as apposed to the wall, causing my buddy to lose around $600 a month. And eventually the cuts will affect Calc locks and they will be laying off 5 operators and will be going to a one operator system to operate both gates.
