Whenever I see an elevator made by the Schindler company, I like to call it the ‘Shindler’s Lift’.

I feel it is rude to face others in the elevator. However, for the sake of safety, women have been trained to stand near the button panel and face any man in the elevator. Still, it smacks of rudeness. I believe people should all face the doors. Remember the old elevator operators? “Please step to the rear and face the doors.”

If you don’t like noise in an elevator, take the stairs. People talks when they feel like it.

There nothing more uncomfortable than a silent elevator when several people are in there. Conversation should be done as long as its not gosip, bashing, ect.. However don’t speak in a language differant than what is the default for that contry. When my wife and I would use the elevator in our apartment, sometimes a middle easteren or a hispanic couple comes on boardspeaking english, sees us and switches to their native language. My wife is way taller than I am, so between their smirks, laughs, and the looks we get we know they are talking about us. Suddenly we both switch to German, laugh, look, and smirk back at them. they get the hint and stop.

My co-worker Clay began eating a banana on the elevator with others on board the other day. For some reason it seemed very awkward for everyone riding down. He didn’t see anything wrong with it, but I thought it was weird. Another factor may have been the fact that he offered the peel to me to eat. (he’s a little slow)

The deal with the repeated same floor button pushing that so many people have trouble with is that while the elevator won’t go any faster, the door will close sooner. The logic is that the elevator “realizes” that someone new has boarded and has had time to press the button. Not all elevators do this but it works in a surprising number of them worldwide.

Pleaz don’t chat on your cell phone! Not everyone wants to hear what you’re having for dinner or how your date was the previous nite.

Kenny brings up another subject that is irritating – having to be entertained every moment of our lives with the t.v. – on the bus, at the bank driveup windows, no, not the elevator, too!? I like to stand at the back to lean against the wall and normally close my eyes to rest on the ride up to work on the 11th floor. My naptime! lol!

David says to watch the floor lights but in our passenger cars we installed monitors that has certain headlines from weather to news to sports along with when we will be having fire drills or anything else in the building.
