I left for work all bright and early and walked on to the elevator with several of my co-workers.
As we went up in the elevators, the elevator stopped and said “The manual stop button has been pushed” (or something like that) even though no one pushed anything like that. Then the elevator started going up and down between floors, but the doors didn’t open.
I finally pushed the alarm button and a bell rang and then the doors opened and deposited us on the mezzanine level of our building where we informed the security guard downstairs in the lobby about the problem. Meanwhile, that same elevator car kept stopping on our floor and opening, but after a while, the guys got into the car, and the girls all waited for another one.
We got upstairs only slightly delayed, but sheesh. I am definitely not getting on that elevator car again.
It obviously missed you last week and got excited and confused upon your return. Oh, yes, Happy Birthday!
Yes, that’s it! It’s trying to mess with you, for neglecting it. That’ll teach those holiday lovers!

Hmmm…I tried to TraceBack this entry, but I was denied for “questionable content”! D:
I just wanted to share my elevator experience. Take care!
Sorry my trackbacks aren’t working
I hate elevators. In fact, I hate when I don’t have a real solid floor beneath my feet.
LMAO….I love reading your stories about work. Erm, with all the problems you have with those elevators? I’d be huffing it up the stairs.
So, how long before they finally start giving these disembodied computer voices in elevators and trains a bit of attitude? I wouldn’t mind Rosie the Robot from The Jetsons or Bender from Futurama.
