dee eight posted:any drat fool can drive a forklift. it takes mad skillz to operate a forklift The only time I've been "certified" or "licensed" on a forklift was in the military, but that never stopped anyone from saying "you, use that forklift" and I'd be doing it anyhow. Two home depots, two warehouses. All say "we want you to take the certification course before using equipment......... Here's the keys." But it's fun watching them do that with even more incompetent people and pallets come raining down the aisles.

A while back I was watching one of those Tow truck driver reality shows. After seeing all the smart rear end comments in here about Forklift drivers, I'd probably watch a Forklift driver show. Fat, shaved head-tattoo guy with goatee and wrap around sunglasses: "That guy thought he could handle it, but I'm actually CERTIFIED to run a forklift. When the going gets tough, the REAL MEN have to step up to the plate for a 'lift' like this one. guy who couldn't handle a 'complicated lift': Yeah, I only got this job a few weeks ago, I'm glad that (fat shaved head tattoo guy with goatee and wrap around sunglasses) was able to take over for me, and move the piece without any trouble, he really saved the day" Narrator: It was a close call, but ultimately, that pallet full of christmas themed feather pillows made it off the dock and up on to the high shelf where it awaits next years christmas shopping season Fat, shaved head-tattoo guy with goatee and wrap around sunglasses: "yeah, he's a good kid, but I've been in the fork biz for almost TWO YEARS now, so I've seen a lot of action. I'm a battle hardened forklift veteran" (eyes light up for a new shirt proclaiming his veteran fork-man status)

HelloIAmYourHeart posted:I had a PPE dream last night. I was at some extremely sketch factory getting a tour and I asked for goggle and a hard hat and the guide was like, "Uh... sure." Last night I dreamed I was in a store and I turned around to see a maskless lady approaching to give me a hug. This was highly distressing. A lady? A hug? (and no mask!) What this means is we're both gonna die.

Put that fat rear end in a top hat on an order picker and let him move poo poo while 25 feet up. Ego like that, seems like the type to not wear a harness or safety strap.

The cleanup process for those were Or the fact that it took over a decade after cleanup of the facility began to get the likelihood of a criticality accident down to “improbable”

I thought I was in the Everest thread for a second, they came in there and shitted it up when it got restarted with the exact same reason (making GBS threads on rich people paying tens of thousands of dollars and getting themselves killed is morally indefensible apparently). I think someone is very apprehensive about being the first up against the wall when the revolution comes.

No idea and if you want to steal forklift valor, I don't care. It's not like I guard the sacred tomb of the unknown forklifter. Steal that forklift valor. My section sergeant just went into the ULLS box and added all the wheeled vehicle types in the battalion to my license. If I had to drive it 5 feet to fix it, I was licensed on it. gently caress SNEEP posted:Are there forklifting challenge coins? Almost certainly, yes, and I'm not going to break my brain looking for one.

gently caress SNEEP posted:Are there forklifting challenge coins? This is about as close as you can get. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IW90TFmRn2Q I drove a fork lift once. I was smart enough to figure out how to lift a steel frame and move it about 30 feet, then move it back later on, and also make sure to turn off the propane when I was done. Am I a fork fuckler? Am I stealing forkvalour by saying "I can operate a forklift"? I technically DID operate it twice, and not gently caress anything up.
