It is easier to justify why someone passed the course. A company will never question me as to why I passed any of their staff, but want a full explanation why I failed them. It boggles my mind, as to me, it should be the opposite. Years ago I had difficulty collecting funds from businesses when I failed any of their staff, and they told me that they have never heard of anybody failing a forklift course. Welcome to Ideal Forklift Training, Ottawa, Canada, where WE protect the operator, pedestrians, and the businesses.

The intent is NOT to fail anyone, but if they don't prove to me via written and practical testing that they are truly capable of operating the lift truck, there is no way am I going to pass them.

And worse of all, when I return home, my wife questions me as to whether I failed anyone that day, and she would say oh, jeez, why?, and I have to explain to her why. Although she is not part of the business, I prefer explaining it to the businesses then to her. The companies leave me alone at night. lol
