I wouldn’t care less. Lazy people being lazy.

I always end up in a lift where the doors open on the other side, and i spend the journey awkwardly facing everyone

I always take the stairs and I work on the top floor (10 levels), usually going up and down about 6 times a day. I always just see it as a bit of exercise but I have to consciously make this decision.

Out of the 50 or so staff on site only about 6 actually do this, so it would be unfair to say that everyone is lazy, they just probably don't think about it.

People deliberately omitting to put their plates away is really annoying.

Someone was supposed to quote me and question me so I could deliver my punch line

Get in, fart silently, get out.

I haven't been in a lift for years and years but they always remind me of this.

Im with OP. Regularly people wait 5 minutes for a lift to take them up one floor when one of the two lifts is out, as is a regular occurrence. I take the lift up 4 floors but always walk down.

If as your getting out you don't let out a huge fart you're doing it wrong.

I, too, like you, always try to take the stairs. It has to do with the fact that I was once injured by a faulty elevator door. It happened because the mechanism was broken, and the door closed unexpectedly, crushing my hand.

Oh no, can you recommend a good solicitor who could manage my claim if a similar incident happens to me?

If you're not dropping silent bombs in the lift are you even human?

Letting out the previous nights tandoori in them is proper etiquette.

Beat me to it.

This. As long as you drop your guts it is correct.

When on holiday to Valencia last month, I took the lift to the second floor, where room was located. As stairs were marble, slippery and stair area not lit up well.

Due to my eye condition, I struggle to see the edge of steps if it’s not bright enough
