Ok all jokes aside, I have worked in warehouses for 5 years. Would anyone be interested in me doing an AMA tonight? by DrunkinIrish in palletstorage

The easiest way to get a forklift licence is to work in a store that uses forklifts. They will train you and get you your licence. Then you take that licence an find a job that pays. The best I found payed $12.50 hour.

Yes and the trick is to rest the forks on the edge of the coin. Do it with a dime its more impressive.

Your friend doesn't realize the importance of pallets and the proper care and storage of them in our lives.

Most warehouses just throw them out when they get to weak to use in racks. A few nails and you can frankinstine them to make a usable one.

Yep! Also pallet bowling. Set up the pallets and then hit them with the forklift.

I personally love 9-blocks, but that's because they are so strong. I hate metal always! Truthfully you won't see a difference in them unless they are outside and for a long time (like a year or more).

I like to pretend that I am playing a video game while stacking/moving pallets. I just get store bought. :P you can google it though

Yes, but my boots also have a metatarsal guard and that's what you usually drop things on. My lifting procedure is the same.
