How not to move a parked car.
A week or two ago one of the delivery drivers at our warehouse was on a run and “name deleted to protect the guilty” needed to move his car so a semi could back in to the delivery dock.
Sane person says, “Leave parked car alone and drive the forklift out to the semi for the one or two pallets being dropped off.”
“Name deleted to protect the guilty” says, “Put a wooden pallet under the car and jack it up with the forklift!” *insert Tim Allen manly laugh here*
They stopped when the car was off the ground and a loud *SNAP* echoed across the parking lot and into the warehouse. Hopefully it was just the wooden pallet with a several ton car sitting on it. Gee, I would have thought that would hold just fine.
Me, I park in the grass now.
It must have been me. That’s my kind of thinking, or rather lack thereof.
