A certified individual of any race has as equal of a chance as the locals at aquiring a job in port yards throughout Lafourche parish. Also all ports to the south under an hours ride in places such as Fourcheon and Grand Isle run transportation for employees from areas even further north than my home of Lafourche parish, and sometimes from the neighbouring states as well if working certain extended shifts.
