Boeing makes forklifts now, didn't you know?
Given the quality of the forklifts we have they definitely weren't built with such quality lol
Pretty much all the new lifts we got have all had little things that QA should have caught before they shipped. Bolts falling off, leaks that shouldn't be there, wiring issues, crossed hydraulic lines that result in inverted controls, etc.
It's pretty silly
I'm not really familiar with those products, but that's the kind of thing where, unless you found it in a ditch somewhere, or bought it at a charity, it should go right back to the manufacturer. Then the manufacturer should go right on that big poster on the wall. The one that says "don't ever buy from those guys".
You'd think so but the bosses were like, "Well do they still work?"
And then kept the lifts
Apparently due to it though they reimbursed us the cost of fixing that but honestly I agree with you
If they missed something that obvious what the fuck else did they miss that's less obvious‽
Oh, right, I forgot you're in the US. You are in the US? Or are there other such places I ought to know of?
Yep I'm in the US
