Stevedore

A stevedore, dockworker, docker, dock laborer, wharfie, wharf rat, and/or longshoreman is a waterfront manual laborer who is involved in loading and unloading ships.
==Origin of word==
The word ''stevedore'' originated in Portugal or Spain, and entered the English language through its use by sailors. It started as a phonetic spelling of ''estivador'' (Portuguese) or ''estibador'' (Catalan and Spanish), meaning ''a man who loads ships and stows cargo'', which was the original meaning of ''stevedore'' (though there is a secondary meaning of "a man who stuffs" in Spanish); compare Latin ''stīpāre'' meaning ''to stuff'', as in ''to fill with stuffing''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Stevedores - definition of stevedores by The Free Dictionary )〕 In the United Kingdom, men who load and unload ships are usually called dockers, in Australia wharfies, while in the United States and Canada the term longshoreman, derived from ''man-along-the-shore'', is used.〔(America on the Move collection )〕 Before extensive use of container ships and shore-based handling machinery in the United States, ''longshoremen'' referred exclusively to the dockworkers, while ''stevedores'', in a separate trade union, worked on the ships, operating ship's cranes and moving cargo. In Canada, the term ''stevedore'' has also been used, for example, in the name of the Western Stevedoring Company, Ltd., based in Vancouver, B.C., in the 1950s.〔Paul Hellyer Papers, Library and Archives Canada, MG32 B33, Vol. 251.〕
