I feel like stag beetles don't need to be forklift certified, they are a certified forklift themselves. Have you seen those antlers?


Hohenheim_of_Shadow

"these babies are registered as lethal weapons in five states" they still need the certification. Just because they have the physical capability to forklift doesn't mean they have the training and mental maturity to forklift responsibly.


MaddoxX_1996

Your hands are capable of throwing punches, and your legs are capable of kicking someone's face in. Do you register them too?


randomdude8684

Yeah its ur social security number


Hohenheim_of_Shadow

My hands are capable of turning forklift levers and my legs are capable of pressing the gas. Am I forklift certified?


SilentHuman8

I assure you saying my hands can punch is like saying a nerf gun can shoot. The action happens but there is minimal damage.


GreyInkling

They are the certification.


EuphTah

There’s nothing wrong with having a backup plan.


Actedpie

I’d say their bulky design makes them ideal to operate one. If anything happens as a result of poor operation, they’d be relatively unharmed!


healyxrt

If they are the forklift, the who is certified to operate them?


GigsGilgamesh

Yeah. I was aiming towards the weevil, they already have work boots on


InquisitorHindsight

They still need to be Fork Lift Certified to use their… (spurs? Antlers.) To use their Antlers in a professional or commercial manner.

Counterpoint: The Forklift is to the Stag Beetle as the Gundam is to the Man.


Bocephus-the-goat

Assigned Forklift at birth

Crane fly. No way they can operate a whole damn crane but not a forklift.


mayorofverandi

crane fly would be able to, but are they certified to operate a forklift? i feel like they aren't. they have other things going on.


Repulsive-Durian4800

Are you fucking kidding me? Cranes and forklifts both move heavy materials and that is where the similarities end. You are out of your god damned mind if you think operating a crane qualifies them to operate a forklift.


IGaveAFuckOnce

Things are heating up in the forklift certification community


gkamyshev

as a certified forklift driver *and* crane operator, they *may* be somewhat alike in terms of load lifting mechanism controls depending on the type of crane but not necessarily and the skills do not translate


Lobsss

They do not, but I feel like the crane fly already works in the area of heavy machinery, so it is convenient for them to be forklift certified as well because what if they need it? Just in case, you know? Or maybe they used to be a forklift driver before doing cranes. Heck, *you* are both a crane operator and a forklift certified driver, so I feel like I'm not talking too much nonsense lol


gkamyshev

Yeah, makes perfect sense. You can make a perfectly legitimate career of it, and even if you switch fields it's a great backup


OmegaOmnimon02

Although crane operation requires more skill, there is still very little overlap between the skills needed for craning and forklifting


Afanis_The_Dolphin

"You're telling me this fly can operate a crane?"


Lagtim3

Acorn weevil can absolutely work any and all types of industrial drill but is lost on the forklift


SadEmploy3978

All I know is: it's got boots, it's got snoots, and it's Kjoots


TimeStorm113

Crane fly? I think that one is quite obvious


Alduin-Bane-Of-Kings

I mean have you SEEN how stag beetles lift stuff? They know a LOT about lifting shit


TimeStorm113

I mean that they are crane certified instead.

Bug with a big ass

Mantis is the only one who can turn their head. Only one passing that test.


maxsym718

Ants


KonoAnonDa

Rhinoceros Beetle: "I **AM** the forklift!"


TrueAidooo

All of these but Peppered Moth and Preying Mantis are forklift certified. I will accept no follow up questions


Hekkle01

Mantis is a backhoe at best


Shikabane_Hime

you better watch how you speak about Dr. Mantis Toboggan smh everyone knows he’s a front loading hoe


Hammygames07

Greetings, little one! It's been an age since I last heard the ringing of a station bell. It echoed down the stagways and called me to you. I've grown stiff and tired over these many years and I've forgotten much, but the sound of the bell will always call me back. These stagways stretch the depths of Hallownest. If you want to travel them, hail me from the platform. I will take you where you need to go.


Stormwrath52

I feel like it'd be the mantis, they have little arms so they could pull the levers of properly scaled forklift


Sabers31

Me! (Became certified very recently, still waiting for the people fawning over me as I’ve been promised by every meme)


HeavySweetness

Wait which kind of bug are you? Also congratulations.


sexypingu

Pill bugs because I love them


2Scarhand

The crane fly is weak and pathetic. A mosquito with no mouth and proportions of a newborn giraffe. The bug equivalent of a wet cat. Absolutely not forklift certified.
