LOL, glad you were able to avert in time. Of course my sidewalk issues are my "little things" that bug me. I'm in too good a mood to list the big issues today :-)

This one isn't really bothering, just plain annoying.

Have you ever been standing at an elevator and waited for it to come? I'd say everyonas been doing that several times in his life. Now, you stand there, you've already pushed the button and it's alight, indicating that the elevator has been called already.

Now... a second person comes, because he or she also needs the elevator. Keep in mind, the call button is alight. This person... pushes the button nevertheless. :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

WTF... that doesn't really make the elevator come faster, does it? Sometimes I'm tempted to say "Ok, that makes 20 Euro fee for stupidity."

No it does not make it come any faster, and it's annoying.

The Elevator already knows the button is pressed so no need to press it again.

Have you ever been to a Hospital and ever seen the huge display panal with numbers on it near the Info desk, Thats the main Elevator override panel, say if you wanted to come to the ground level and bypass 3 floors well it will do just that.

Also, it's cool when the fire alarm is pulled the cars all return to the recall floor and the doors open and stay open.

They can't close again until it's reset.

I was in Newark, NJ at a hotel across from the airport, damn I wished I had the camera with me, like 100 people tried to get on 3 Elevator lol too lazy to take the stairs.

Hey I do that. It's a psychological thing. You go to an elevator, you press the button. My mind does not like to work when it does not have to. Pressing a lit button doesn't hurt anyone.

lol yeah but some people press it like 5 times.

no less than 15 times, otherwise would be uncivilized.

They just want to make sure.

Incidentally, some pedestrian crossing buttons can be triggered by pressing the button a certain way, like morse code. I've also read that some elevators can be "express" elevators by pressing the floor button and close door button at the same time. It supposedly will skip the other floors to go to yours. I've never tried.

lol ever get a elevator to bounce off the bumpers at the top floor?

lol I dunno what I pressed but I was at the 4th floor and I think I did something and the Elevator started up and it was bouncing up and down with the door open lol, I got off it.

I have another irritating thing about elevators.....

Why is it that when the guy/girl in the elevator is getting off at the highest floor as opposed to everyone else, those bastards choose to stand in front of the doors during the ride? "Get the F#$%& out of my way you prick!"

Also, when you get into the elevator and the door is almost closed, someone outside always runs and holds the door so that the elevator doesn't leave without him/her? I don't know what he's thinking but there are 3 other elevators in the lobby, in which all move relatively fast. (On average, you wait around 10 seconds before the next one comes)
