[QUOTE="awayfarer, post: 3062634, member: 42702"] It was at my last job. I was a forklift operator and I had just brought my lift over to the battery changing area to, you guessed it, change a battery. The batteries on these machines are large and weigh about a ton. You need another, smaller, machine to pull the old battery out and get the fresh one off the rack. I pulled out the old battery with no problem. I wasn't exactly on the ball that day and it took quite a few passes with the machine to line up to get the fresh battery off the rack. The maintenance guy for the building walks past and says "Are you taking 20?" I hadn't thought that he was a gamer so I was sort of surprised. Turns out it was actually just a bit of confusion. The batteries are numbered. The one I was going for was #20. I ended up trying to explain the situation to him but I'm pretty sure he just thought I was weird. [/QUOTE]
