Forklift FAIL!!!

I used to drive a forklift. We watched a video on it, received training on the forklift and changing the propane, and filling it. No liscence.

+1 .

well it may not be a license persay, its certification.

Dawn, you wouldn’t get it even if it was there…

Reading is fun.

Certification for what? reading the manual?

and I don’t think you get it either.

I drive a forklift 7 hours a day at work for the past 5 years… I know I have to get recertifed every 3 years for osha.

You don’t get it.

We never had to have this happen. OSHA never said anything to us. This could be company policy not OSHA.

osha or whatever makes you get a cert to operate forklifts, atleast in my experience.

Nope:

I think they changed it so forklift certs are given by your employer and expire if you get fired/quit, at least that’s what my old boss told me. I drove them uncerted though.

I have zero certificates saying I am qualified to operate a forklift. I was simply trained by my employer and I can assure you that my employer is OSHA kosher and everything is legit. It is a hundred million dollar operation.

You don’t get it?

OMFG this is ridiculous… Obviously some employers need you to have a certification/license and some don’t. Is it really worth getting into an argument about?

Regardless of whether you need one or not, this dude F*CKED up. So stop being little bitches about whether you need a cert or not and watch the video of this guy destroying thousands of dollars worth of Cognac.

This is why I hate NYSpeed sometimes, because someone finds a ridiculous reason to pick a fight and they run with it as far as they can. An that’s why we end up with threads that have 8 pages of bullshit.

Its by employer, I asked my boss.
