What is it with people who wont use the lift to go up or down one floor!? I could understand it if they had desperate need for the exercise, but these people are just fecking show-offs. And is it just coincidence that these people are usually the sort who could do with taking life easy now and then?

<<What is it with people who wont use the lift to go up or down one floor!?>>
At one time I worked in a building that had stairs made of a glass plastic sandwich mounted on rubber with metal rails. The result was a giant capacitor. The staff got so fed up with static shocks so they all used the lifts.Comment
