1) Undercover was a Hard Rock/AOR group by a ex-Vandenberg singer Bert Heerink from Netherlands who make 2 albums in the 90s. One was Undercover (1990), a cover album, and second record was All Line Up (1994).

Personnel:
Bert Heerink Vocals
Dick Kemper Bass, Vocals
Ronald Bekking Guitars, Vocals
Ivo Elfers Drums
Cyril Whistler Guitar, Vocals

2) Undercover was a UK based pop-house group who hit the UK #2 spot in 1992 with their Stock, Aitken, Waterman produced cover of Baker Street. Pop covers of Never Let Her Slip Away and I Wanna Stay With You followed before the demise of the S/A/W 'Hit Factory,' but by then, Undercover's star was starting to fade anyway. They released two studio albums, Check Out the Groove and Ain't No Stoppin' Us!.

3) Undercover was one of the pioneering acts in Christian music. Formed in the early 1980s by Joey "Ojo" Taylor in southern California, Undercover brought a new punk sound to the Contemporary Christian music scene that differed from the Christian rock and Christian metal bands of the time. Through more than two decades and a few lineup changes, the band released eight studio albums and two live albums, and is considered by many to be pioneers in what would later be called Alternative music in the Christian world.

While the band has seen several members come and go (and come again), Taylor has said on more than one occasion that the band decided sometime after 1994's Forum that "Undercover is Ojo, Gym, Sim, and Gary," emphasizing that any other lineup, if any, would in the future be called something else.

Undercover played two reunion shows in California in August 2005. Their first eight albums have been collected into two sets, Anthology 1 (the first four albums on two CDs), and Anthology 2 (the next four albums on four CDs).

Takes a certain kind of person to operate them. You cant be afraid, the guy is 100% right. If all youre thinking about is not wrecking you will wreck eventually. Its like skiing through trees, if youre focus is on the trees and not the path you will hit a tree eventually lol

FearfulArtist88

@Anthony Hill Nobody said special, I said certain. You actually have to be a bit special to not do it, but these ppl exist. Some ppl should not be on this equipment. If you don't believe that to be true you haven't seen enough accidents caused by the special ppl..

Anthony Hill

A special kind of person? It doesn’t take special skills if you can be certified to operate the equipment the same day you learn how to use it.

@nunya Doesn't pay minimum wage around here, Cherry picker operator makes between 15-20+$ hr. Not many warehouses pay minimum wage tbh. Maybe if you're manual recieving or something? Its a decent job around here. I know places out west like Cali pretty much pay slave wages but here you can buy a house driving a lift easy.

I hope that CEO considers a promotion or something for that guy. He was respectful, professional and honest.

Ruan Rothman

Surely firing someone so quick doesnt show much professionalism. There should be adequate training, i get the safety factor but you arent leaving a brand new trainee on their own while theyre still under training. Obviously it wasnt ever going to equate to a real job because the guy is the CEO but there needs to be adequate time to assess and report fairly

@EliosMoonElios He didn't know that was the ceo. The entire point of the show is to lie to the employees about that 😐

I worked for 2 days in a similar warehouse using machines like that and on my second day of training i let my supervisor know i couldn’t do it. I was terrified of hurting the people around me and myself and they respected my decision enough to set me up with a different job. I give major credit to the people that do jobs like this l.

Steadholder Harrington

@Kevin Perez Sadly, yes, I do know that there are many, differing aspects , and "jobs" to working the "Docks", and usually thats why they don't just stick any-old-person into the head positions, in reputable companies anyway. Mustang or cowboy operations (fly-by-night if you wish) companies, I can't speak for though.
Cross-dock operations are a whole 'nother ball-of-wax I wouldn't want to touch if I don't have to. (Cross-Docking - Where you have multiple companies moving freight to-and-fro between different trucking companies in the same building, usually without the benefit of walls separating each company from the other).

Steadholder Harrington

@Kevin Perez The error was one both parties in these cases, as it is also the duty of the person unloading the trailer to ensure that the trailer is properly situated on the outside, before they enter to load or unload the interior. Few people do it, but it is one of the dock workers many and varied responsibilities.

Steadholder Harrington

@Kevin Perez Wasn't trying to be "that guy", and like you, I worked my way up from scutt labour-meat at the bottom of the food-chain in a warehouse to being the ship/rec. guy handling the load schedules and such (with differing companies over the years). I've just see lots of stupid s#it happen over the years because people thought one section is easier than the other, and they were going to prove it, is all.

Kevin Perez

@Steadholder Harrington also these like 10 different jobs in shipping that range from beginner to expert. You should know that, after all you were the guy who “works on the dock” 😂

Kevin Perez

@Steadholder Harrington btw your speaking a whole lot of nonsense that yes, makes sense, but your being really dramatic. Also the truck drivers job is irrelevant in this argument. This scenario you just said is possible but uncommon and is due to a 18-wheeler driver error vs the warehouse workers.

No he has to cut off the heads of the entire boardroom (anywhere but on hallowed ground) wait a moment to absorb their power and knowledge (called a quickening in technical terms) and then he will be the CEO..... or maybe I've mixed it up with the Highlander franchise, I'm always doing that.... which one do you need to set up shell corporations in tax havens? That's definitely what a Highlander does right?

Heavy equipment operations is something that should be taken seriously. I have been in the industry 34 years operated various types of equipment. Have seen many accidents with lost limbs and even loss of life. Never underestimate what these machines are capable of doing.

Steadholder Harrington

@Brandon Lemoine Perhaps not the "man-lift", or double-pallet jacks they were operating, but there are a LOT of forklifts out there that DO Qualify as Heavy Equipment. You should see what they use to offload railroad side-cars loaded down with lumber sometimes. Or pipe, or any other manner of over-sized loads, like sea cans for instance; its not always top-lifts taking care of those puppies.

Steadholder Harrington

@avidrdr Were your trucks old enough to still be two-stick'ers? Cause that's what I got to test in; and though I never tested in this other one, they still had a two-sticker model where the brake pedal and clutch-pedal where integrated into one pedal. Depress half-way for the clutch to engage, and all the way if you wanted the brakes instead. Trust me when I say that it's a copper-plated B!TC# to actually drive too.

Steadholder Harrington

@avidrdr I had a former truck driving instructor (retired now; in his 70's) who's father-in-law was a D.O.T. certification examiner, and the F.I.L. was involved in the take-down of one of those "truck-driving mill's" in Calgary, AB. up here in Canada. The "Delta Truck Driving School"' where you could arrive in the morning as a wet-behind-the-ears-greenhorn, and so long as you paid for your "lessons" in ca$h, you became a graduated truck driver, WITH the Actual License In Hand, by the day's end. For those that don't know, a normal professional truck driver's license usually requires 40Hrs of in class Theory, 48Hrs in-cab driving lessons (given in 2hr. chunks to allow for you to actually get used to each part of the lesson) and then at least 1 - 2 weeks of on-the-job training with an instructor-supervisor always travelling with you before you got your final written exam, and only if you passed that, your practical driver's exam, and then only if you received a good passing grade on both, do you get your driver's license. (If you're going for your Class 1 License that is. 2 and 3 have their own requirements of course, but if you can drive as a class 1 driver well, you are also certified for every thing else except a Class 6 Motorcycle License).

walkie talkie

@papa mito yes most companies require a certification of authenticity showing you have participated in a class of instruction.

papa mito

@walkie talkie don't you have to have a certificate where you are trained to use these equipment for couple weeks before doing the job? that's atleast the case where I live

I hope that the owner now realizes that his one little mistake was really one big mistake. LOL like you make one mistake on a piece of powered lifting equipment, someone can lose a life or a limb very easily. I've seen it happen

whyisblue923taken

@esils It wasn't just not stopping somewhere he needed to stop, which is bad enough. He also kept going and panicked when he was told to stop. I worked at a store where they cleared some jackass because they had cleared his electric pallet jack certification years ago and he would have taken out my ankles if I hadn't heard him and lifted myself off the ground in a second. Employees like that never change. They also think they're good because they think they're fast.

@SationalCyn YES!!! I’ve worked in many warehouses and with many people that don’t take these pieces of equipment seriously. It really is just like driving a car and if you’re not careful/paying attention you can easily kill or hurt someone. These are incredibly heavy pieces of machinery that need to be treated with respect

SationalCyn

@esils I didn't say in this exact situation anybody was at risk, but in general it's no different than running a stop sign with your car. There may or may not be another car or a pedestrian coming you may get away with it 20 times and on the 21st have an accident and kill someone

SationalCyn

2y↑9

@esils if you were taking a regular driving test and you ran a stop sign do you think you would pass? Probably not. Usually when there's a stop sign in a warehouse where power equipment is used it's because it is a crossing for pedestrians. Or other machinery. Getting hit with one of those, you're probably not going to make it out very well

When safety is on the line, that is exactly the type of person I would want to supervise or manage that task. He was kind, respectful, patient, but ultimately understanding of the bigger picture. He wasn't confident in the ability of the new hire and saw him as a potential hazard to others or the facility. CEO should be proud.

My comment was not meant to hurt or ridicule anyone... in many companies the instructors are told by the higher management to check out for whose who have the fear of heights and have a bit of a shaky confidence. I underwent a series of skill tests as well. But that was just my experience. Everyone has their own different experiences. Even I could've been fired on the very first day on the job. So maybe I got lucky.

Gravas Veritas

Of course it's not. But how long did it take you to become skilled at your job? 3 hours? A day? More than likely 6 months to a year of full time working with your boss to understand and become fully functional on these machines. You're ready to fire this guy because he was incapable of working a machine that you have to become certified to use before you are allowed to use it by yourself. There's a lot of ego in these comments: everyone wants to chop the head off the CEO because it makes them feel taller.

I’ve worked in Warehouses using both of these machines and I’m afraid of heights. The first machine terrified me every time I had to go up to the 3rd level of shelves to pick items or to restock items. The first 2 levels of shelves I was fine with because the wobbling of the machine wasn’t that bad but at the 16 foot level and above was terrifying for me.

The 2nd machine he used I loved to drive. It was super fun to drive.

@Scott Shingleton oh wow thank you so much for letting me know. I'm now more informed than ever

Scott Shingleton

@Dean Ranklin It pays to get outside training, it gives you the knowledge and the confidence and it also shows a potential employer that you have the capability.

Scott Shingleton

@ItsGrzli TV And each machine requires separate certifications and the training courses are anywhere from an hour to a week. In my case, sit down forklift training was all day, 7 hours in the classroom and 5 minutes hands on. Electric center rider pallet jack training lasted all week. Hands on was a few hours every night doing laps around cones and at the end of the week we were given a written test. I got both certifications without any problems.

I myself went through over two days of training and certification (in-house and online). This is only a small portion of what training to use lift equipment is. The order picker should NEVER be used by someone that is not comfortable with heights. The ride on electric pallet jack (or surfer as we called it) can have incredible speed to it and needs to be respected 100% of the time. Some lift equipment (ie. a 15, 000lb fork lift) can do 5 times the damage to a person if struck even at low speed. I get the point of this video, but safety training was missing and this is nothing more than a I got to fire my boss moment........I might.....might watch the full episode for context, but I doubt I will see a FULL SAFETY TRAINING (FYI, I am a certified member of a JHSC so SAFETY is my first and only concern.) I also cannot justify the termination on a safety concern without proper training provided. It's a justifiable argument. Ignorance on both sides is no excuse. You cannot fire someone because they did or didn't do something if the procedures were never explained to them (maybe done off-camera???)

@Farouche I cannot speak for USA regulations since I am certified in 🇨🇦. I am familiar with in-house training only. In Canada, you can taken 3rd party training but I would agree 100% in regulating it. I don't feel secure with the competency and consistency of in-house training. There has to be a measurable aptitude requirement similar to driving an automobile or other vehicles. They need to be treated as any other motorized vehicle on the road and minimum standards/competency should be applicable prior to receiving your license and recertification required every two years.

@Farouche the operator must fear and respect the machines. Know your limits and don't agree with something outside your experience. Complacency is one of many factors to all accidents.

There's no law in the USA about these machines ?
In my country it's mandatory to have a certification from a certain place.
Though a man told me they actually had more accidents since they made it mandatory, because people seem more eager to have a stamp on their paper than to really learn something.

You can tell he is entitled thinking about what he did a a little mistake when it can easily cost somebody’s life. Was he an average guy he would not even be there… would need training and a license prior to getting on those lifts.

Scott Shingleton

@Glenn Mason I knew OSHA required certification for powered industrial equipment but didn't know they required every company to certify their employees regardless of having recent prior certification. That explains why prior certifications don't carry over to other companies. I figured it was either just company policy or for insurance reasons or both.

INP Final

@Shoaib Alam USA and if by training you include videos to watch then I guess I was trained? Despite the videos having nothing to do with warehouse. It mostly focused on CDL stuff nothing with the equipment. And im sure someone in corporate has a piece of paper saying I was trained to cover any legal issues but no when I first started working, I had zero experience with any of the equipment I was using.

@INP Final Hate to tell you, but that company would face serious OSHA fines. According to OSHA (in 2014), all personnel need to be trained and "certified" by each facility. So for example,I was certified by a training course,but hit someone in the Costco warehouse. If Costco did not officially train me, they broke the law and would be heavily fined. Now the training does not have to be hard, there just has a process. So under a Costco supervisor, you can watch a safety video (20 minutes long) and pass a test, demonstrate how to complete a daily checklist and then rack a pallet. When OSHA comes by after an accident, you have followed the law and will not face serious fines. They may ask Costco to change their training but you did a written test,demonstrated the ability to use the machine and knew what was expected for a daily maintenance check. Based on that, fines can be avoided unless there is a history of warehouse accidents.

As a pmv driver he is 100% correct in keeping him off the truck. I call BS though you have to go to pmv school for at least 4 weeks before you even get to touch a machine in a factory. Show time I guess.

Either they did this on a Sunday after blowing smoke up that patient workers ass. Ot blowing smoke up ours sun-sat

@sheba dog Well it's pretty clear while watching this video he doesn't have a license or have had any training whatsoever

@Figgy Newton Really sad??? Not if you live in CA or NY--you need to be certified in order to drive one (although I never have), and those are only 2 examples. I'd guess OSHA has a complete list, and the unions have something to say about certification as well.

Eeyore

@Figgy Newton I agree 100%. I wish we had more strict forklift laws here. I have a new CAT forklift that already looks like it's 10 years old, because these young, inexperienced guys are allowed to just hop on and go.. It's terrible.

In canada you need to have a forklift license before you're allowed to operate this type of equipment. Really sad the USA doesn't give a shit about worker safety or regulations in general. Would rather their workers lose an arm and the company pay out a $2 million lawsuit than actually train people before using deadly equipment.

I’d like to see what happened after this.
But yes. I think he did what he should have done, frankly. Safety is number one, especially when heavy equipment is involved. As disappointed as his boss might be to have been fired, he should also be very proud of his employee.

The boss helped him pay off his credit card debt and promoted him to a manager with set salary so he no longer has to worry about hours.

This is why classroom training, hands on inspection and review, demonstration and then operator evaluation is so important.

I teach this equipment too at my job, since this was put together with cuts I don't know how much time he has on the machine, but I do think everyone can drive those things eventually. The order picker (the one that went really high) thats the hardest one to teach people because of the heights.

Yeah that's super dangerous! He could destroy the warehouse or kill people.

@JcRabbit I think USA should have certifications to drive machines, and not judge people's abilities during a 5 minutes interview with a know-it-all, otherwise nobody would ever be able to use these.
Some people take longer than others to learn stuff, and if a beginner was to act confident about it, I would trust him even less than someone who has some fear in the first place.

Like you could kill people driving if your driving teacher fired you after 10 minutes.

I've used equipment like that for about 10 years, and I have never in my life seen anyone get fired on the 1st day, they always give you more more time to learn, they won't put you on the equipment, they'll find something else for you to do until you are comfortable

mudbutt _

@statinskill I had a coworker at a big lots distribution center do something like that, He was stacking these huge racks and one accidentally overlap the other 1 and when he lifted up It started a domino effect he took out like 10 rows of pretty expensive items, he didn't get fired, When you make a mistake like that they take you for a drug test

statinskill

2y↑3

I just have that one video in mind where the guy hits the rack with the fork lift and then the entire warehouse comes crashing down like dominoes. I know right now and right here that I should not be using a fork lift for the same reason I am not a pilot.

I get the safety issue, but one thing I noticed is that there was no safety training in advance. Probably should start there.

I think if nothing else, not whos great whos not great but the ceo realizing the tasks and nerves his employees feel and have to be able to keep under control is huge. I was expecting the trainer to be much worse, he was fantastic and immediately sensed company risk. Thats more important then the training itself, you cant teach that to everyone, you learn fast or get off the steering wheel.

I driven both machines and its not as easy as it looks. Its good the man takes safety seriously but i dont believe it merits the man being fired.

@Schwenda So the CEO himself is subjecting his own company to massive fines and filming the evidence? Interesting! His trainer did exactly the right thing

Schwenda

2y↑2

@Figgy Newton OSHA in America has forklift training down to where most companies’ training/certification procedures are almost completely identical from one another. Much less STEEP fines for any violations they see within any workplace. Even a pallet leaning sideways as opposed to flat on the ground is a literal 5-6 thousand dollar fine FOR EACH ONE THEY FIND, no exaggeration. Much less for major forklift offenses, such as not having fall protection on when on any machinery that’s airborne much less an uncertified operator using the equipment…

Schwenda

2y↑1

Slightly harsh but a pretty appropriate call. Simply crawling or “California stopping” at a stop sign in the warehouse was considered an “up to and including termination” offense at at least a couple warehouses I used to work at.

He just about BLEW through that stop sign… with substantial obstructions to the views on the opposite side. Any pedestrian just out of sight starting to cross that immediate area and it could’ve been a full-blown forklift/PIT-on-pedestrian incident. The severity aside, the company WILL have to report it to OSHA. And pay BIG $$$ for any would-be victim’s injuries.

Jordan Aguirre

@Figgy Newton your missed informed there are regulations in place and remeber this is a tv show.

Figgy Newton

2y↑2

There is a reason in Canada you need to have a forklift license before operating machinery like this. Fucking insane USA has absolutely no regulations to just let a guy off the street potentially kill someone. Instructor absolutely made the right call, that guy was not the right person for the job.

I run forklifts everyday, even through the sales floor, im pretty damn good at it, the key to it is learning the machines limits, like turning radius. The only time I hit a pallet is to straighten the product (which is lazy) the most important things is watching your surroundings, and being cautious not scared or nervous.

I understand that it's serious and dangerous, but I also think we need to give people a chance to learn from their mistakes. Especially when it's their "first" time.

Syllaren

@Mike G he was giving instruction on how that exact lift operated. Different models will have different features and interfaces. Some are going full blown digital even. They give you training so you can adapt to that new system of control without knocking shit over ontop of people.

Bugsnasty 24

and that’s how people die lol

Mike G

@Nao Sou this isn't carrying people and you're reaching. Yes it's dangerous, we've been over that. They are literally giving him first day training and saying the reason he was let go is because he wasn't paying attention, which apparently you aren't either, so you're fired.

Ps: carrying furniture? you could drop a couch and kill someone. I guess you need mass amounts of training for that first too huh? And I have some bad news for you about pilot's too bud.

I’ll give the trainer credit for tact and honesty.
I didn’t see what was done wrong, but I wonder if judgement wasn’t hasty. It takes time, some repetition, to work your way to confidence. Yes, you do learn from mistakes.

whyisblue923taken

You always need to stop where there's a corner because one of these machines can kill if you don't. After he passed the intersection, he kept going after being told to stop and panicked. Panicking on one of these machines can also kill someone.

To be honest he most probably would overcome his fear as he got more experienced in what he was doing. Not everyone can operate that type off machinery straight away. Maybe they could practice in a more safer environment. Yet under the circumstances the Teacher had no choice in firing him. Yet he could off explained why more better. And been more direct.

At least the ceo got fired I work for homedepot and have all my machine licenses but if I hit or break something I'll get fired for the same pay lol but in all honesty there are people out there that can't drive cars but you expect them too use machines just because people can operate a car doesn't mean everyone can drive Manuel lol

Anon Commenter

Working building marinas for half my life I have seen my fair share of accidents caused by people incorrectly operating machinery even as high as 80t cranes not seeing a roof and ramming the load bearing chains through the tin shed roof a good metre or so. Another fella wasn't paying attention when lower a 1t sheet of steel onto another sheet of steel with the 20t cantry crane, he for some unknown reason had his finger over the edge of the bottom sheet and lowered the top sheet onto it which obviously just squashed it like beyond repair, I never forget the scream aye.. they don't offer any psychiatric evaluation afterwards either in a lot of places. When we had a crane/boat accident when I load became unstable and bashed into the pontoon our boat was moared on which caused the pontoon to flip which caused the 2t concrete slab to detach from the floatation a d submarine into the harbour pulling the boat down with it, the boat was still in gear and the fully exposed prop was coming towards 3 of my workmates who were launched into the drink from the flipping of the boat. Was seriously nearly a triple kill, I was standing on the pontoon which was bumped and became unstable so I jumped to the pontoon which was being lifted hahahaha being little helps sometimes

@Rama Sura oh yeah, any kind of warehouse work is always in high demand for workers. We always prefer experience but if not we train them properly. Just letting them hop on it and just have a go is how people get hurt and only scares new people mote.

but in the warehouse industry tho you have to even have the proper cards and stuff to drive those. it’s different when you’re trying to get used to the lay out but the CEO was absolutely struggling to even look around his basic surroundings. if you look here on youtube for warehouse accident horror stories i’m sure you’ll find them. those Machines cool kill/ hurt you or someone your workin with.

I work in a smaller warehouse (with less stringent safety policies) and if someone is super nervous like this, I tend to recommend us getting rid of them before we complete their training.Yes, they will most likely, eventually, get it, but it's also likey they might get in an accident. The owner came in the other day to pick something up, and couldn't figure out how to start the forklift (the ignition is a little wonky) so I offered to get it for him and he jumped right off. Safety is cheap. Accidents are expensive.

Having no prior exp and not being certified he did well on the high lift. You cant learn to drive those safely in an hr or 2. Plus I'm pretty sure you need to be certified to operate them.
