Shoutout to when I used a forklift to hang Christmas lights and almost took out the gutter

I still can't believe how close I came to disaster that year.

Check the lift height before you raise the forks. Have a buddy on the ground watch for gutters and other hazards. It keeps you from costly repairs.

You ever just stare at the gutter after a stunt like that and just shake your head at yourself? I once tried to use a tractor bucket to get a kite out of a tree and put a dent in my porch roof. The whole "this seemed like a good idea" phase hits different when you're ten feet up in heavy machinery. You're not alone in the almost-caused-thousands-in-damage club.
