his happened in Russia at a supermarket. The shelves were stocked with imported liquor (whiskey, rum) that was worth some $180,000. From what I learned, the company fired the operator and demanded that he pay for the damage. However, the operator sued the business and the court ruled against the company. So the company was out the $180,000.00. The court ruled the company was in violation of not providing proper training, and in violation of safety rules.Regardless of the legal ramifications involved, it is obvious that the forklift operator had a very bad day at work. I read somewhere else that the operator was also drunk. I am wondering if he got drunk while they were digging him out, instead of before the accident. You think that maybe he may have opened a bottle of rum or whiskey as he was trapped to calm his nerves?
About Me: I am a born again Christian who enjoys talking religion and politics. I have always believed that it is the Christian's obligation to understand the workings of our government as well as they do the precepts of God. Jesus tells us to be "wise as serpents and harmless as doves". (Mark 10:16) So it is with this understanding that I approach life. I was born in the Midwest, and while I may have grown up in Northern Minnesota, I have earned my degree in knowledge and understanding from the many regions of America and Europe that I have either lived in or visited as an adult.
