    Office Lifts

    Thursday, 31 August 2006 10:11 am

    Frustrations of the everyday office worker in Hong Kong:

    You come into your office building in the morning and walk into an empty lift.

    You’re having a small and private moment of happiness as you’re the only one in the lift, and this will mean that the trip to your floor is going to be fast and smooth, with no stops along the way! Whoo hoo!

    The doors start to close and you’re still alone.

    Then, a hand peeps in to your lift and pulls the door open.

    Fine - one more passenger, so max one more stop on the way up.

    But then another 2 passengers rush in.

    And another one.

    And another three… And another one…

    Doooooh!

    Before you know it, you’re in the lift with 14 strangers and maybe 1 or 2 co-workers.

    And when you look at the lift button panel, you see that you are going to make at least 10 stops before you reach your floor.

    Frustrations…

      Als je door dit soort zaken gefrusteerd raakt is er maar één oplossing: zet je wekker op 06.00AM en zorg dat je de eerste bent “on the office”, toch ?!!!
