If you really want to see some blank stares, ask if this elevator will take you to the end of the hall. By the time anybody with a brain figures out what you just asked, the doors will have closed and nobody can bust you in the nose.

…well…. i’d say duh to this rule… unless you really really wanna go on a long, pointless ride through the building.

its fun to make everyone wait for you to go to the highest floor, then go down the to the first floor. Cruiseship elevators, namely.

My dad once was on an elevator when the doors opened the man asked “Is the elevator going down?” the universal response was “No, up.” at that the man asked “After it goes up will it come back down?”…..The wisacracker in the group exclaimed “THAT’S HOW ELEVATORS WORK!!”

Thanks! And agree to all the etiquettes here. Indeed, these rules are quite universal and most of us are actually using them day in and day out.

Another one or two rules should be:

1: Do not stare at an over weight or short person inside the elevator.

2: Do cover your food and drink as you might annoy someone else with the smell.

3: If you are sure to use the elevator then reduce your smoking just before entering the building. It is quite annoying for the others if you smell like nicotine.

I WOULD ASK 9 OUT OF TEN/BUT THAT ONE WOULD ONLY BE IN CASE OF A EMERGENCY

Since responses must be quick it’s best to state the way you’re going. Say, “Up?” in a questioning tone and your fellow travelers will have enough time to respond and you’ll have enough time to hop aboard.
