  • Ray Leak Sr., Longshoreman - Crane Operator - The Who, Why & How!
    Nov 29 2023

    Ray Leak Sr.  Longshoreman - Crane Operator for 18 years and counting. Listen as he takes us behind the curtain of one of the more demanding careers I've ever interviewed. 

    A longshoreman crane operator's job typically involves operating cranes to load and unload cargo from ships at ports or docks. They are responsible for safely maneuvering the crane to lift, move, and position containers or other heavy loads, following specific guidelines and safety protocols. Additionally, they may perform maintenance checks on the equipment and ensure proper handling of the cargo during loading and unloading operations.
