Anyone else constantly have to put up with this ?

I will be in a lift at work, and when it comes to my floor, the door opens and as you go to get out, people try to walk straight in. Quite frequently in my office, the same people actually push their way in the lift past me so i have to wait to get out. It pi$$ed me off so badly earlier on, even after I politely asked if I could get out, that when i got out, i pressed all the buttons for all the floors on the lift

Grrrrrrrr

Nothing like a bit of immaturity to help relieve the stress

LOL Nice one.

Just have yourself a nice Lamb Phall the night before, brew it up and let it out quietly before leaving the lift

Yep know what ya mean.

Dunk, i have tried this method and it works, spent about a week working at the Birminham Hilton @ the NEC, having eaten hotel food for all week my guts where a bit rancid and volitile to say the least. got into the lift on the 4th floor and by the time i got to the ground floor i had 'released the pressure' by letting go of about 4 major league rip-snorting, minging pumps - it was making me gag and my eyes water. I had trumped that hard that i was a bit concerned that i had inadvertantly let a couple of 'chocolate hostages' escape by accident, fortunately not!

I just got out as about 10 Japanese tourists where pushing past me clobbering me with bags and cases trying to get in the lift - As i was wondering down the corridor tittering to myself, i could tell by the noise that where making and they did not sound happy - perhaps they will not be in so much of a hurry next time.

Alas

Can't resist this one. Anyone see Peter Sellars as Clouseau in the Pink Panther when he lets one go in the lift. I just about p*ssed myself watching it.

stay in the lift... start grinning then anounce your wearing new socks.

They'll think your weird and will give you a wide berth.

Or don't get out, hold the doors and say your waiting for someone, after a few seconds close the doors and say, few didn't think you'd make it.

Again a wide berth will be given next time.

Or when the doors close shout out don't worry they open again.

Dave, when I eventually get this plaster off I'll lend you my crutches - nothing better for generating some sympathy, first in any queue (and a path to the bar)

C U Thurs?

Also have you noticed how people stand right in front of the doors so that when they open up you have to climb over them to get out of the lift! Why don't they just stand a couple of steps back from the doors in the first place and give the people inside room to get out!

The scene from the pink panther is very funny, I remember seeing an outake of this one scene which went on for a long time as instead of making a trumping noise someone said the word "now" to signal that they should start sniffing, the only trouble was as soon as they said "now" they all fell about in fits of laughter and could not finish the take.

A similar problem occurs on trying to exit tube trains. I simply push them out of the way, its the only language these morons understand.
