For me I passed my test and on the first day nearly tipped the forklift. I still feel bad about it.

I'm impressed by how many good forklift-stories there are here, I never would have guessed how much crazy shit you guys go through! But this one wins the prize- that sounds sketchy as fuuuck..

Yeah, lots a poor choices on that job. I was a young guy who didn't know anything, the other guy had a reputation for doing some stupid stuff I found out later.

The company was sketchy as hell, all kinds of crazy stuff happened on a weekly basis. Let's just say I'm happy I'm in IT now lol.

Forklift driving isn’t as easy as it looks, and in some cases makes your job more stressful.
