Learning to do a job requiring a forklift is a lot like ****!

You can SIMULATE it.
Talk about it.
Ask questions about it.
Read about it.
Write about it.
Watch videos about it.
Discuss the various protections needed, and
take pencil & paper or digital tests about it.

But, if the operator of it can NOT actually accomplish the full job intended, then there is NO WAY they can move the human race, or anything else of value, forward.

Simulator or not, how do YOUR operators stack-up?

Best wishes,

Joe :-)
