Tongue in cheek is a wonderful delusion to live under.

At one time there was a learned man with the last name of Darwin, I believe that he had a wonderful concept that was called natural selection, it worked quite well until all those "bleeding heart liberals" started to mess with it.
With natural selection only the smart ones propagated the earth, therefore all the stupid lift truck operators would die off eventually. We would then only be left with the smart ones that wore their seat belts and followed all the proper safe operating practices.

OHHHH to live in such a euphoric society.

Since we live in the real world all that we can do is rant at operators, intimidate managers with due diligence and hope that we get our message across to the one that will survive another shift because we care more about people than making a quick buck training today.
