At least with some elevators...you occasionally get to see people get their comeuppance. How? Some have doors that open a bit differently. That is, a few at the Carnegie Library/Museum look like a "normal" elevator. You go in through the usual large doors. However, when you reach your floor...a much smaller door on the *side* opens to let you out. There was a reason that was done...but it escapes me now. Anyway, it was always amusing to be riding the elevator with my dad...and seeing other users occasionally falling on their asses. They'd lean on the 'wall,' and would topple when the 'wrong' door openedAerodynamics are for people who can't build engines. --Enzo Ferrari

Quoth RealUnimportant View PostI get wound up when people press the wrong call button, i.e. up when they want to go down. It interrupts the existing journey & means they have to wait longer, but so does everyone else...
One day one of the Facilities workers came by and showed us a trick. Press the down call button and it would force the other two cars to eventually go down to the ground floor after they finished any stops going up. They finally fixed it and put some time based controls in it to force cars to the ground floor during peak morning rush times.
