Summary: Have you ever arrived at a building for a meeting, only to discover that the office you need to go to is on the 28th floor? You feel despair as you think about all the stairs leading up, up, up… and then you see something that makes you smile. An elevator. Some people say that stairs are great for getting exercise, but that’s only half true. If you have to climb to the 8th, 10th, or 12th floor regularly, your workout might exhaust you before you’ve even started your day! An elevator is definitely a convenience because it helps you get where you need to go more quickly and with less work. It can be uncomfortable to ride on a crowded elevator, though. Sometimes it’s even more awkward when you share the small space with just one other person. Do you say hello? Do you try to ignore him or her completely?
