Where I used to work they were always hitting the overhead sprinkler system. About once a week the warehouse was flooded and merchandise destroyed. A slap on the wrist and put 'em back out there.

Picking up the dime part is actually very easy. I can usually get the new guys or vendors for 5 or 10 bucks. I wouldnt feel right taking a 100.00 its so d@mn easy.
The bottle trick was impressive on such a large machine, which usually arent very forgiving.

thats insane. how precise and perfect haha

NTMAREMACH · 04-17-2012, 09:41 PM

Went to work today and threw down a quarter and jumped on a forklift and successfully flipped the quarter onto the fork twice. Only tried twice so I have a perfect record. Couldn't do it alone because I couldn't see the quarter. Needed someone to let me know when I was over it. I can see some mod money being made off some generous co-workers.

Pretty fawking awesome!! hahahah Soo WISH I knew about this trick before I stopped working at my warehouse!! hahaha

wdwrdcrzr · 04-29-2012, 03:32 PM

This was the second try, when one of the guys was trying to help.

It's fun screwing off when others are working.
