Pushing Buttons
I’m as guilty as anyone else on this matter, but I think it’s an interesting view into the human psyche. When I get on the elevator, I always push the button for the floor that I want to go to. It doesn’t matter if the button is already lit up, or if I saw someone push the button just a half second before I reach for it. Somehow I don’t think that I’ll be allowed to get off on my destination floor unless I’m the one that actually pushes the button. Very odd.
I thought that I was alone in this strangeness, but I’ve seen more and more people do it lately. Maybe I’m just looking for it these days to justify this strange quirk in my elevator behavior.
Does anyone else do this?
