Scumbag pallet jack can lift 2000 lbs. Can't be driven over a pencil.

OSHA inspectors just shit bricks

hankofthehill · 6 months

Suddenly, crippling pain and tedious paperwork with HR at work.

complete_hick · 6 months

We ride the pallet jacks all the time at work, but can't imagine ever trying something like that. They get pretty squirrelly when you try to turn them too fast, not to mention doing a full speed 180.

Must be fake, because I have never seen a delivery dock that was as clear and tidy as that

Warehouse workers have too much free time. My boss over the summer could use a fork lift, to push down on the edge of a penny, flick it into the air, and catch it on the fork.

xMIASMAx · 6 months

Got fired once for riding one of those. I regret nothing.

SAFETY VIOLATION

mr_jp · 6 months

That reminds me of a German Forklift Safety Instruction video (NSFW) a while back ...

BGYeti · 6 months

Hell yes I was never this ballsy but i used to ride those around at a previous job, manager thought it was awesome but didn't like me doing it on the sales floor because he didn't want people above him coming down on him for it, and wanted to be able to do it later.

Back in 2006, when I was still working at dell, my coworkers and I had a race with pallet trucks. He tried tried to cut me off and ended up hitting a a huge rack, tilting it, and knocking over $2 million dollars worth of equipment.

NO MICHAEL YOU CANNOT OPERATE THE FORKLIFT

bancan · 6 months

TIL what I call a pump truck is also called a pallet jack.

r_kay · 6 months

I do this all the time at work. I've pulled a full 360 once, too. Body varials tend to freak people out, though...

Better not let OSHA see this

I used to work in a Circuit City warehouse and on slow days (which honestly didn't happen a lot, our store was always very profitable unlike many other CC locations) we'd set up an obstacle course of broken electronics (always lots of philips/magnavox/sylvania products.... funai junk) and do timed hot laps around the warehouse.

We also made a ball out of clear packing tape using a heat gun that was harder than a baseball and played "nut ball" with it, a game where you stand maybe 10-15 feet from your opponent and have to throw and catch this tape ball with one hand. if you missed, the other person got a free shot at throwing the ball at your nuts. Pretty fun job.

DiaDeLosMuertos · 6 months

Well our LP officer told us of this guy that scootered the PJ and he ran his own toe over and damn nearly severed it so... no. Not for me.

shkraimershcosmo · 6 months

is that an ae86 forklift, i cant believe what im seeing!

JLow1864 · 6 months

Consider that guy lucky that there wasn't a pebble on the ground.

Airclot · 6 months

So it seems that people working in warehouses have the funnest jobs in the world. Is this accurate, or is it completely soul sucking with 5 minutes of fun a week?

tranle1508 · 6 months

Awesome!!!..... That's interesting. But I think so, you will be very dangerous. Actually, today there are plenty of accidents at work that you don't know in advance if you don't work seriously. For example: broken leg, bones,....

StarTrekMike · 6 months

Good way to knock over a pallet or kill someone.

Don't get me wrong, it's cool, but it is also very stupid.

FattyMcPatty · 6 months

Not that this isn't cool, but with the health and safety laws here in Australia that right there would be an instant dismissal.

MacNamedDre · 6 months

I fell as though "Like a Boss" should flash across the bottom of this

fluttershyisbestpony · 6 months

I will never be as cool as this guy.

arbivark · 6 months

best paying job i ever had, we drove a tow motor around the warehouse. a tow motor is like a cross between a pallet jack and a big electric skateboard. hijinks like in the gif were not allowed, but i admit that guy has skills.

Second half: Never mind.

Holy shit, i think i know that guy...

I used to work at the same place as as we had the same machines and boxes. We wore the exact same aprons and hats. If it's the the place where I worked, that's a plastic capping facility for Gillette shaving cream and aerosol.

I actually dropped one of those huge crates/palette on my feet and got a bruise that looked like a horse's head...](http://i.imgur.com/OGKKo.jpg)
