Thoughts.com Blogs - Forklift rollercoaster

Since the age of 38 I'm convinced im diverting back to the age of 12....12 was a great age....me and my friends would go off on these great bike adventures.....would be gone all day....adventuring.....find someones old discarded junk....some cool looking rocks.......catching lizards......end up with stains on our hands from picking up horny toads....left over tobacco spit from the toads....which leads me too...a few years ago.....

Forklift roller coaster......what is it?......Good thing Im here to tell you about it....I'll say its something fun to do when the power goes out....We had just cleaned out our wharehouse awaiting the next wave of crap to be delivered....its a saturday afternoon.....power goes out....We have an Outback steakhouse next door to us....Howard the owner has already called and gave us a heads up on the situation...thanks Howard.....

My boss our cashier and I are in the wharehouse.....its dark....we open up the rolling door....figure we'll have enough light to do some sweeping.....go to move the forklife.....hey....I have an idea.....Boss goes to get the office chairs.....her and the cashier....sit in them and push themselves in between the forks...start the engine....turn on the lights.....nobody wants to sweep anyway.....I got to drive the forklife....I rev the engine.....its my frontwards....they are going backwards.....in reverse....its visa versa....we lost Stephanie(cashier).....she let go.....she was laughing to hard.....I had to go back and get her.....I will leave no man stranded on my watch!....

We dubbed this "forklift rollercoaster".....had a great time....Should we have done it.......probably not...but Im glad we did!.....Could we have been trusted not to do it again....NO!.....we did it again...did we get caught....nope.....should we have been....probably.....was anyone hurt....no.....just something fun to do when the power goes out.You are never too old to have fun....even if it is something you shouldn't do.
