MIAMI (AP) — Gov. Rick Scott is spending one of his "workdays" at the Port of Miami.

Scott will spend Friday morning working with the ocean transportation company Seaboard Marine. In the afternoon, he'll be working aboard Carnival Cruise Lines' Imagination.

Since August, Scott has scheduled time to work jobs with regular Floridians. Last month, he spent a day at a Panama City Beach restaurant.

Scott, a Republican, borrowed the "workdays" idea from former Gov. and U.S. Sen. Bill Graham. The Democrat performed hundreds of "workdays" during his eight years as governor and 18 as a U.S. senator.
