August 2016
Safety.
Forklift Operator:
Forklifts are dangerous, and if they are not taken with extreme caution and responsibility you could seriously hurt yourself and others. Speed and rate of work is important but not the ultimate goal when first starting out. Learn the machine, how it operates and the responsibilities of how to drive it and the rest will come in time.
August 2016
The fast pace environment.
Forklift Operator:
Take it one day at a time speed and knowledge come with time don't get in a hurry.
August 2016
Every job is fun.
Forklift Operator:
My advice is if you like using forklifts and like working with them go after a good paying forklift job with good benefits. If you are afraid of heights or pallets being above your head being a forklift operator is not the job for you.
August 2016
Watch out.
Forklift Operator:
Takes forever to advance. Bonus system is arbitrary. Pay whatever they feel like so no planning ahead. All you can count on is working all day everyday. Soaks up about 12 hours to work 10. Work is easy, the drama is frustrating. Minority owned and typically only advance minority's.
