What is it about elevators that make people think "I think NOW I will be a rude fricking asshole!"
Because it's as annoying as hell.

Do NOT enter an elevator until all of those getting off of the floor have left the elevator. I know you're in a rush to get somewhere; however, the elevator ain't going to go anywhere until the passengers get off so just wait your fricking turn because I really don't want to wear your greasy slimefest of a breakfast all over my white shirt!

When there are 3 people on the elevator space the hell out. I really don't want to smell your unkempt, unwashed hair.

Try to keep your bags & personal belongings close to your body. No, I did not appreciate being rear-ended by your umbrella or whacked in my stomach with your luggage size purse.

I'm 50lbs overweight and even I take the stairs anytime I'm 3 or less floors from my destination. If my fat ass can manage those steps then there is no excuse for you taking the elevator for one floor!

1. Some rude fricking asshole did that to me a week ago today, when I was going
to the doctor's to pick up something.

Put me in a bad mood for hours. :grr:

12. Me, too. It's fun to let one rip and then look all innocent.
Especially when in the company of the extremely proper and executive-ly attired, anally retentive
hool-a-goblins! But of course they walk in like they own the elevator in the first place, and with their nose so sky high in the air, it is certainly a wonder they don't get a nosebleed.

3. The worst are the elevators that charge you to ride them.
:wtf:

Guess it is a Delaware thing.

8. I always walk rather than take the elevator when I can
at the hospital where just about all of my docs have their offices, above the 4th floor, you have no real choice but to take the elevator, regardless of how many floors you're moving.

If there are stairs above the 4th floor, they've hidden them well.

I hate that. :mad:

10. We're a very tall building so it's not uncommon to have to travel 10+ floors to get somewhere
:D

11. At least on trains, conductors enforce "deboard first"
SEPTA and AMTRAK conductors don't let people on until EVERYONE has deboarded. It's the same with elevators.
