oddly enough, there's a LOT of guys who drove forklifts over the course of their working lives in the RGI housing part of my job

heh-first time I rove a forklift, I was still a teenager. (been certified on multiple classes over the years. one particularly arduous course took a whole day!)

Was ripping apart and setting up the machines at that first factory jerb, too.

although that was 37 years ago and I was making what'd translate to about $25-30/hour now

So you're not impressing me with the mastery of your... I wanna say "trade"as you're pretty much describing a general labourer. Granted, one with enough of the rudimentary skills to perform a repetitive sequence of tasks...



Anyways, I've got a blue room thread. you can read all about the multiple hats I get to wear in my current job there.

I am not sure getting to drive the forklift is the statement of proficiency dumbass thinks it is. Lots of business owners find out that letting the village idiot operate heavy machinery due to convenience causes them liability problems.

I've had this shirt in my Amazon wish list for a while because I think it's funny that there's apparently certification for forklift operators.

LMAO where UA misses the reality that he dies because he doesn't listen to the strong female lead due to his sexism in the alien movies.

insurance requirement.

kinda makes sense-my first factory job some guy (not me) managed to put the forks through the side of a trailer.

but yeah, right up there with the whimis vids reminding you not to drink the blue stuff in the cleaning closet.

That makes sense.

From the time I was 14/15 I was operating backhoes, trenching machines, and even small bulldozers for my dad’s business so compared to those a forklift seems pretty low key.

Ayup.

Starfield even gives you the "fuck it, this is just a parallel universe version of yours, hell your friends aren't even here to judge you, go ahead!" option - and in one reality, you meet Evil You who went batshit and slaughtered your pals - but I can never bring myself to do it, or even get an "X disliked this" reaction from my crew.

Excessively-enclosed, oddly-named baby crib aside, why does it contain a guitar case and a cello case?

I wonder what's in the instrument cases? Probably some ransom shit like silverware or something because it's unlikely people like this would actually store instruments in their instrument cases.

Forget it, Jake. It's Australia.

It's Braniac's dog.
