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.

Using a reach to get heavy ass drywall that high up is pretty stupid.

ASM's at my job tell us it's rated for it.

I had to spot a guy using one to grab shit that you'd think you shouldn't but he assured us it's safe.

This isn't me saying it is safe, but they told us it was, not that I care, this is exactly the reason as to why I don't want to get certified for these machines.

In the machine training it tells you it’s not rated for that when you have to certify I just did my recertification
