Using the elevater to go up 1 story.

Post by wart57 »

If you are healthy, why wait for 20 seconds for the elevator, and then go up one floor, thus making me stop on your floor befor I can go up to the 4th floor. If they had an entrance to the stairwell on the bottom floor( there is a door, but no handle that allows you top open the door from outside the stairwell), I would never even take the Elevator, but my f-ed up building has a set of stairs that goes to the first floor, but you then need to go around the corner to get to the stairwell. I have to ride the elevator up one flight, then stop at the 2nd floor, then stop at the 3rd floor for a few more to get off, and then go to the 4th. I hate elevators.

Elevators are great. You don't have to use the stairs. Plus, you can leave a gift for everyone as you leave the elevator. Also, there's the uncomfortable interaction with other riders. It's a great experience.

I have f-ed up knees too, but I alwasy take the stairs down. I hate waiting for the elevator, unless the hottie from the other wing is taking the elevator.

When I stay at a hotel with a lot of partying going on, about 3 am i like to ride the elevator dressed as the devil. When the elevator opens and the wasted people stare at me, I arch my eyebrows and ask "going DOWN?"

So, do they open wide, or what?

Any chance I get riding an almost full elevator to say "There is room for one more" in the creepiest voice possible I ALWAYS take.

I think most people take the elevator because the stairs are sometimes difficult to find.

I fully approve of this rant & have ranted about it myself in the past. The WORST are healthy people who take the elevator DOWN one floor. :x :x :x
