Ah thanks, that gives some context because I didn’t really understand. Also, I was just tasting the word Gabelstaplerfahrer because it sounds funny when you say it fast.

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
