O.K - I feel you're overreacting for the following reasons: -

1. Why on EARTH would you want to make small talk with a stranger in an elevator? Go the British way and ignore them. People who talk to you in the lift are psycho's or elderly.
2. You should think yourself lucky if you find yourself in an elevator that breaks down and someone wants to eat you. Isn't that like a porno dream?

3. WTF have you done with your kitten avatar - I miss it.

well, Gotta lives in SC, so between the lobby and the 4th floor, people will tell you who their grandma was, where they went to school and with whom and what their kid had for breakfast. and of course they want you to reciprocate. lol


Kinky!!!

Elevator hoarders of the world unite!



ha! a true story! just this past lunch break i was going down to the street level in the elevator when the dang car stopped at the 5th floor (the very WORST floor in this building for chatty, scattered types (bless them)) and sure enough, two people got on, a man who stepped into the back of the elevator and a woman, who refused to board entirely and instead stood half on the 'vator and half off, blocking the door from closing and holding up the entire car while she finished her conversation with someone who was standing in the lobby.

people, PLEASE! either get your ass onto the elevator and let the door close promptly behind you or stay off the thing entirely while you continue that fascinating conversation about your shoes on your own time.

thanks in advance! that is all biggrin


You should have just shoved her out biggrin

I see, God, I'm so British. I need to know someone for at least a year before we start acknowledging each other in the street with a slight nod that's almost imperceptible to the naked eye.

you know what, when there's a bank of ten elevators, if someone expects me to hold my elevator for them they can just suck it. i understand if it's an old building with like one or two cars, but come on now.

Taken from:

http://www.elevatorrules.com/



If you are going up or down one floor, use the stairs! This rule should especially be observed during peak traffic times like morning and afternoon rush.

Exceptions:
1. When you have a cart, stroller or large packages
2. When the elevator is empty
3. If you are disabled or injured

I once took an elevator up 40 floors to visit a friend in a large office building. Once I stepped off, I realized her office was on the 42nd floor, not the 40th. My mistake. I decided to walk up the extra two floors. I entered the stairway and walked up. However when I tried to open the door to exit the stairway, it was locked. That was frustrating. I walked down one floor. Locked. I walked down the the 40th again. Locked (yes, it locked behind me when I walked up originally). 39th floor - locked. I started to get very nervous that I would never escape - or that I would have to walk down all 40 stories. Finally, about 15 floors down, I found a door that was open. I will never take stairs in a large office building again unless I am personally familiar with the building.

Yeah, but how do you know when the elevator’s going to be empty?

Is it ever acceptable to pretend to have a slight limp?

At the college I went to, there was a women's dorm that was 13 stories high, but it was expected that you didn't take the elevator unless you lived above the 5th floor. Well, that and moving furniture at the start and end of the school year.

Has anyone been in an elevator with someone that looks familar to you, or was a celebrity?

It was either the second or third Celebration...and I had checked into my hotel. I had just gotten all of my luggage(and I don't travel lightly) into the elevator and a man got in with me. So he starts talking to me and then I start to realize why he looks familar, it was Billy Sparks. He has a very nice tan colored workout suit on (pants and matching jacket) and I think that's when I figured out it was him. I think that's his trademark outfit or something,and I was like uh huh Billy! biggrin

I will hold the door open for people I know, people who work in the building, people who look like they could kill me if I ever cross their path again, people who are disabled, children, and a FEW other people. A few.

Other than that, I'm almost terrified of having to speak with someone in an elevator for some reason. So I usually don't. The only time I can think of in recent memory was when I was staying in a hotel and a whole sports team of kids was in one elevator eek so I went to the second one and their coach followed me in there. He basically looked at me and said something like "You're smart for not going in the other elevator." lol And I kind of laughed and when I reached my floor I fled the elevator. falloff

Maybe it's the small space, or maybe it's the fact that I hate talking to random people I don't know. disbelief But I hate being in the elevator with other people.

What a bunch of assholes.

People in the elevators can be fun sometimes.

I was standing in the back of one, some guy gets in and inside the elevator and this muazk version of "My Heart Will Go On" is on and this dude starts singing ! Really passionate too, gesturing and everything. And I just stood there watching him. I guess he didn't even notice I was in there when he walked in, but man, it was quite a show. When he finally noticed me we both had a good laugh. lol

Keep in mind, the person approaching the elevator can see you pushing the close button and never forgets your face as the doors are closing. I had this happen at work when I was transfering a critically ill patient to the ICU. An OB-Gyn doc, using the emergency elevators did that. I told everyone about it. The guy could've cared less about a patient being "ambu bagged". What a low-life.
