In my experience, one millimeter (1mm) is enough to stop a full ton dead in it's tracks, while also

Gabelstaplerfahrer

Kein Ausbildungsberuf.

This is literally an unskilled job. Except you need a certificate. Which requires ~~skill~~ sorry: training and practice.

German is easy like that.

Gabel = fork
Stapler = stacker
Farher= driver

The etymology of these words is pretty far out, but it's technically the same as forklift driver. I don't know. To me it's the same picture.

Yeah I know, I can speak German but it still has funny sounding words :D
