Maybe in a really highly specialized capacity, but your average, run-of-the-mill forklift operator in a warehouse... it's not really that high of a skill, and capable operators are a dime a dozen. If you want to make money doing it, maybe something like getting a CDL and doing flat & fork work would pay decent.
