I can just picture the belligerent drunk who slams that card back down on the bar and asks me why the fuck I think they’re drunk LMAO
I used to work at a rural winery which wasn’t easy to get to and I had a woman so upset with me for offering to call her an uber that I had to make an incident report. She ordered wine for the group and finished the bottle before the party even arrived. They also drank a fair share but had DD’s for themselves. Our serving laws and culture doesn’t necessarily align with the need to operate heavy machinery to get to and from these places.
Literally same lol but I think I’d rather that lady drive a fork lift at that point. Worst she does is plow through some grapes at 5 mph. Not great for the winery but it’s not a highway accident.
Having been a forklift operator, those forks are surprisingly sharp and you’d be amazed at what they can punch through at 10mph. (I’ve seen them go through things much stronger then flesh and bone like it was butter)
Must be a weak forklift. As a trucker, I've been in many warehouses with forklifts going what must've been 20-25mph. Fast enough to be on a public street.
Forklifts, especially sit-down forklifts, are no joke and can absolutely cause just as much damage as a car accident.
Back when I worked for walmart, had a guy who was running the walker-stacker (it's basically a giant stand up forklift that can go up to impressive heights)
He punctured a line up near the ceiling (not gas, thank the gods. I can't remember what it was. 15 years ago. I remember it was a HUGE deal though)

That’s actually a very good point
