Forklift drivers, what's one thing that you've done by accident that's always stuck with you since it happened? (lemmy.ml)

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

Backed a forklift into an AC window unit of an office my first day on the job. I was fired by the end of the day and that’s the last time I ever drove a forklift.

That's unfortunate. Ive had people do worse things and keep their job.

Was your next job in a related field or did that event make you change careers?

[–] Lifecoach5000@lemmy.world 1 points 4 hours ago

I ended up changing careers. I had previous forklift experience working at a warehouse but yeah never went back into that industry.
