In tennis, there is no halftime. Breaks occur between sets, which consist of a player winning a total of 6 games, winning by two. Ex: A game consists of the first to 4 points. The winner of 6 games (must be ahead by 2) wins that set. Then there is a short break. A women's match is best 2 out of 3 sets. A men's match is best 3 out of 5.

Depending on the Skills of the Job a longshoreman can make around $26 to $33 an hour.

As of July, 2008 the base hourly day-side rate for longshoremen on the West coast is between $31.18 and $36.98. Though that's the base salary, many jobs pay 10 hours per shift and often times when it's busy you can pick up extra work. Many longies that hustle can do about $150k per year. Foreman and clerks make much more than that however.

*** You can go to payscale.com to get a national average***

When they work, casuals make $18.50 to $21.50 an hour. But the goal for most is union membership, with earnings of $60,000 to $100,000 a year, plus a full package of medical and pension benefits.

-Longshoreman with straight dope-

West coast longshoremen in Canada earn $36 for day shift, $46 for afternoons and $58 for graveyards. Both day and afternoon shifts are eight hours and graveyard is 6.5 hours. Rated jobs, as in anything that is not labor, for the most part earn the operator an additional hour at time and a half.

It is a casual work environment. Longshoreman can work anywhere from zero to seven days a week if the work is there. Busy ports will often see everyone working a lot, slower ports... Well, not so much.

I've talked to a few guys from the port of Long Beach in California and I am working under the assumption that longshoremen on both sides of the border are making the same rates of pay, but I could be wrong. Since contracts are negotiated with the Pacific Maritime Association, I'm going to assume that any port that is a member of that body will pay those rates, though.

I've calculated a five day week on afternoon and graveyard shift earning me about $108,000 per year for a typical 40 hour work week. That doesn't include holiday pay, paid holidays or things like extensions which would boost your overall earnings over your base wages.

It is important to prepare your body for tennis. You need to eat properly and stretch. Here are some tips to help you out when you are about to hti the court. Make sure you are well hydrated. It is critical to be hydrated before you even step out on the tennis court. Drink water or an electrolyte laden sport drink such as Gatorade. The sugar in the sports drink will give you an instant energy boost. Make sure to consume a light, high carb snack one to two hours before your tennis match. A bagel with peanut butter and a banana would be perfect. The bagel and banana provide carbohydrates while the peanut butter provides protein. Stay away from any high fat foods and heavy meals within three hours of your match. High fat food will make you feel heavy and sluggish on the court. Take time toog around the tennis court three times to get your heart pumping and your muscles warm. Once your muscles have become warm, then you can go through a simple series of stretches.
