So it happened. One of my worst fears. I got stuck in an elevator leaving work yesterday. Had to crawl out when the OTIS guy finally arrived cuz it was stuck between floors. Great timing try to leave early and wouldnt you know lightning struck the building at just that time and lost power. I noticed on way in its still out of order. I am thankful im not fat or old yet as i still might be in there. I found out that those emergency phones do actually work.

    An experience I hope to never have to deal with.

    How long was it before the OTIS guy got there?

    Was in there for close to an hour. When the maint guy found out i was in there he called OTIS it only took him 20 min for him to arrive. He said i was lucky he was in there area or the other guy would have taken over an hour to arrive. Mind you it was 5 oclock traffic and in the rain. All in all i think i got off easy.

    Yeh you're probably right an hour under those circumstances was pretty lucky.

    The only time I was in an elevator stopped between floors was with a hot girl I knew in Madrid, and I had stopped it there with the emergency stop button (they work too). Totally different circumstances, mine actually stopped about 5 times on the way to the 7th floor, :D but that story doesn't belong here;)

    I'm in a sharing mood too.......

    I was going to lunch the other day and as I walked out the door from our office building and I stepped onto the grass and I instantly froze with disgust at what the hell kind of dog patrol had apparently passed by our building and done a mass unload.......I was literally frozen and the look on my face had my co-worker laughing his **** off.........

    Yes, I've seen what lawn aeration looks like, but I don't know what the hell happened to cause me to totally forget about that and think that a mob of a couple dozen dogs all took a dump and I was suddenly walking through it........

    I'm half tempted to write the manufacturers of those machines and suggest that they change the shape of the cores from round to square.........just a thought.....lol.

    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    I was stuck in an elevator once. I was working overnight shift in a hospital. I called the operator and then just chilled out. I was on the clock the whole time. When security finally got me out of there I had to go back to work. I had enough air to breathe and I had just hit the restroom before I got on there, so I was in no hurry. I asked the operator to tell my supervisor that I couldn't make my rounds. What else can ya do in a situation like that?
