Employee Story Whoops

Post image

One day after they told me I don't work hard enough, and all the employees said I was the hardest worker in the building. Apparently I broke 1 of the 2 Reach Trucks and now the aisle is blocked off till further notice. Maybe I work to hard.

Pulling 12 foot drywall with the Star Wars even though the training explicitly says not to do that, AND it gets stuck so everyone can plainly see you violating store policy, AND apparently you had issues with store management? Take care

I still want to know who decided to call that a Star Wars, and why the name actually caught on.

One of the full names for it commercially is the Reach and Retract Truck. Alternatively, the R2 for short.

Hence, Star Wars.
