Going up…?

Lefts (elevators for some…) are an excellent way to avoid using the stairs for exercise.

In my apartment (condominium for some) building, the new lifts have a remarkable feature…

Buttons that can select, and… de-select a floor.

For those of you that have mis-pressed a button and wished they hadn’t this is an absolute boon.

Not always a needed feature — but a feature nonetheless that is welcome.

Until…

  • Two people get into the left on the same floor at the same time…
  • Press the ground floor button seconds apart…
  • The ground floor light goes on…
  • The ground floor light goes off…

Stand around staring at the door wondering why you aren’t moving…

For those of you that have pressed a button and wished that the light would stay on — this is annoying.

Either way, you can never please everybody.
