I have never driven a fork lift. All of my jobs were “desk jobs.” I was the Special Market’s Administrator at Rubbermaid for a time. I often had to walk miles (it seemed like) through cavernous warehouses to get to which ever shipping department to compare bills of lading before they unloaded the truck. I had reason to walk and walk and walk. I had to file. Had to run up and down stairs.

I was a secretary for a time. I had to walk all over the office and through the warehouse delivering mail and packages. I filed, which involved squatting, then standing, then reaching, crouched over. I unpacked various office shipments then put them on whatever shelves they belonged on.

As a teacher, I was on my feet constantly, up and down, up and down, and often hauling various things into the class room.

Another “desk job” I applied for, had I gotten it, would have required me to run up and down this one flight of stairs 10+ times per day.

What is involved in driving a fork lift?
