What I want to know is why Kohls sells guns.  I thought they were a clothing store?

RF guns are for identifying inventory, not shooting people.

This sounds to me like bad workspace design, so I wouldn't put all the blame on the forklift driver.

Good point. You put a concrete pylon in front of the fire control system's storage tank. But maybe that would violate fire code or something? Perhaps just a small concrete curb around it.

Or maybe an RFID klaxon that goes off in the forklift if it gets too close to a vulnerable item, like the RFID cage.

Or cover the forklift in Nerf.

Better yet, make the forklift OUT OF NERF. Damn, I'm good at this. I should be an industry consultant.

Or a NERF salesman :P

Yes clearly this could have been avoided if the forklift operater had removed those dangerous tines on the front.

I am not sure if they are called "tines" but it makes a heck of a lot of sense.

After the whole thing, I took a moment to look at where the EXIT signs were, and to my surprise, they are just about everywhere, and they are double-sided! How's that supposed to work?! Apparently to them, any way is a step in the right direction.

Evidently they want you to run around like headless chickens until you die, so you can never mention how incompetent they are.

psh who reads threads before posting in them.
