CURIOUS CASE OF ELEVATORS

I use elevator everyday, whether it is the office building or my apartment. But seriously, it is one of the most awkward places to get stuck with people you don't want to (unless he/she is your crush). And I, definitely, don't want to get stuck with the following people inside an elevator:

1. The earphone/headphone guy: Okay, we get it. You are listening to your fav song. While I and rest of us are stuck with you, we can't help but hear the gargling sound from  your earphones, trying to share the "awesome music" you think it is. Boy, lower it down.

2. The leaner: He is typically a lazy guy who can't keep his head straight off. The moment he enters inside the elevator, he will lean on you. No amount of discomfort shown by your face will affect his head. To keep your temper down, you might as well give your shoulder to lean on, before he forcefully does.

3. Office crush: Wooo... Your office crush... with you..... in an elevator..... wow.. Thank your stars and enjoy the 5-10 sec ride. But don't act creepy by staring at your crush constantly inside the enclosed box. 


4. Attractive people: Being inside the elevator with these kind of people might prove to be uncomfortable. You will spend rest of the time, staring at them, then the mirror and thinking if you look good enough.


5. Madonna types: People falling under this category try to hum their favourite tune in a so-called low voice, but we can't help it. If by any chance, she is going to 8th floor and you are 1-2 floors below her, prepare yourself to sing with her, to bear the torture in a better fashion. If you can't shut them up, join them!!


6. Boss: Even if you get along, being stuck with your boss inside an elevator is terrible. No amount of fake smile will save you from those awkward pauses and silence.


7. Chatterboxes: These are extrovert human beings who chatter and blabber about the latest episode of our favorite tv series or movies or the latest trending topic. They are the best source of office gossips and rumors. 


8. Big Bag Theory: These people can be detrimental. They turn left and right and slap us with their bags.


9. Always-in-a-hurry ones: These people repeatedly push open/close buttons every time someone gets in or goes out of the elevator. it's so annoying to watch.


10. Poor Hygiene Ones: Curse your day, if you ever get stuck with them. Prepare yourself to hold your breath till he or you reach the desired floor.
