fork truck

I've worked in places where fork truck drivers have had to make almost heroic reaches and extensions in order to store and retrieve pallets and stainless steel vats -- Not a job for the faint of heart.  These drivers really have to know what they're doing and keep their wits about them as they put their loads out on a limb so to speak.  And most of the drivers I knew were very skilled and professional.  But it was always best to keep a sharp eye out whenever you had to work anywhere near a fork truck that was loading or unloading.
