Hey chuck Do you already have a CDL if not that's the first thing you need to do. As far as a forklift operator the closest thing I can think of that will give you the skills you need while making money is find a company that's willing to train you as a roll off driver. The skills you need to do that align perfectly for a forklift driver because you a boom and a cable that pulls the can on the truck while the boom helps level the container out. Or get with a lumber company and they will train you on a forklift driver position. I mean good luck in pursuing a career in this field. It's a good living and it pays well

The ability to do multiple fuctions at the same time while having an awarness of your surroundings as to not run into anyone or thing. Know the machines tipping points.
