  3. Mike K,

  4. err,

    suddenly my day at work doesn’t seem so bad.

  5. ntac,

    The scariest part of my job is driving the forklift. When you get certified, they make you watch all sorts of videos like this that show how dangerous it is.

    You’re told that if anything starts falling from above, you should stay in the cab because it offers protection.

    I would’ve run, too.

  6. gruggach,

    Yikes! Good thing that guy was quick on his feet!
    I used to occasionally operate a mini forklift, and I was completely untrained on it’s proper usage. I was driving it around the warehouse with the lift in the highest position and hit some overhead lights I had broken flourescent tubes rain down on me. No injury, but holy heck that could have been bad.

  7. Laura,

    Am I the only one who thinks that he was driving a ridiculously large item through a relatively small space? And it was at a slight angle, which didn’t help- I’m surprised this stuff doesn’t happen more often.

  8. j eastman,

    So that’s why my order from Amazon.com was delayed…

  9. mike,

    i think its safe to say that guy was fired

  10. It was like that when I got here – is not likely to work in his case.

  11. MarvinTPA,

    Now I know that shelving is THAT fragile, I’ll be keeping one eye on it when I next go to my local DIY warehouse.

  12. PopCollector,

    Silly! It wasn’t the fork lift driver, it was just another angle of the earthquake damage inside the warehouse that was floatong around the internet last week.

  13. Erin,

    Silly! It wasn’t the fork lift driver, it was just another angle of the earthquake damage inside the warehouse that was floatong around the internet last week.

    It was God punishing the driver because Sean Penn won an Oscar for playing Harvey Milk.
