So I started my new job yesterday. It feels like a fresh start, but my employment was just resurrected at the same old place. So it will be an interesting transition. My new job title is Fulfillment & Inventory Specialist. It's a fancy way of saying that I'll be doing a lot of counting. Don't be jealous. As a part of my job, I will be working in the warehouse and managing inventory. This requires me to be trained on the forklift! So today I took my online training course and exam. I found it to be very humorous. This was a warning illustration of possible death by forklift.
I'm pretty sure that's a coffin. But the description was more about falling off the edge of the platform. But I guess having a coffin by your forklift just cuts out the middleman. Also, I have to learn a physics equation, the Inch Pound Forklift Equation. Watch out math geniuses... here I come!
Step 1: You must first determine the maximum Inch Pound capacity of the truck. To do this, you must use the equation (A + B) x C = Inch Pound, where A = 18", B = 24", and C = 5000 lbs. (18" + 24" ) x 5000 lbs. = Inch Pounds (42") x 5000 lbs. = Inch Pounds 210,000 Inch PoundsWhat? My brain exploded because I haven't done math in a really long time. Well, other than to calculate the interest I could've gotten on the money Melissa owes me from 2006. (J/K MJ) So I am off to go learn more things. I hope you all have just as much fun as me today. Coco crispies!
We are 3 friends trying to stay friends. We refuse to let distance or boys separate us. And until we move back in together in 40 years, these are some things we tell each other. Thank you for being a friend.
