Things to do in an Elevator

1) When there's only one other person in the elevator, tap them on the shoulder and then pretend it wasn't you.
2) Push the buttons and pretend they give you a shock. Smile, and go back for more.
3) Ask if you can push the button for other people, but push the wrong ones.
4) Call the Psychic Hotline from your cell phone and ask if they know what floor you're on.
5) Hold the doors open and say you're waiting for your friend. After awhile, let the doors close and say, "Hi Greg. How's your day been?"
6) Drop a pen and wait until someone reaches to help pick it up, then scream, "That's mine!"
7) Bring a camera and take pictures of everyone in the elevator.
8) Move your desk into the elevator and whenever someone gets on, ask if they have an appointment.
9) Lay down a Twister mat and ask people if they'd like to play.
10) Leave a box in the corner, and when someone gets on ask them if they hear something ticking.
11) Pretend you are a flight attendant and review emergency procedures and exits with the passengers.
12) Ask, "Did you feel that?"
13) Stand really close to someone, sniffing them occasionally.
14) When the doors close, announce to the others, "It's okay. Don't panic, they open up again."
15) Swat at flies that don't exist.
16) Tell people that you can see their aura.
17) Call out, "group hug!", then enforce it.
18) Grimace painfully while smacking your forehead and muttering Shut up, all of you, just shut up!"
19) Crack open your briefcase or purse, and while peering inside, ask, Got enough air in there?"
20) Stand silently and motionless in the corner, facing the wall, without getting off.
21) Stare at another passenger for a while, then announce in horror, "You're one of THEM" and back away slowly.
22) Wear a puppet on your hand and use it to talk to the other passengers.
23) Listen to the elevator walls with your stethoscope.
24) Make explosion noises when anyone presses a floor button.
25) Stare, grinning at another passenger for a while, and then announce, "I have new socks on."
26) Draw a little square on the floor with chalk and announce to the other passengers, "This is my personal space."

This is one of those things doing the email rounds so I may be the last person in the world to have read it. Alternatively, if none of you have seen it - then I must be mixing with some very hip people. Never mind - I found it hilarious. I was just wondering if it should go in the "How to annoy your work colleagues" thread

... if it should go in the "How to annoy your work colleagues" thread ...

Befinitely, most definitely, Jonno.

Actually, you're a two faced git, cos you made me feel really, really guilty ( as if ), with your post questioning why anybody would want to annoy their work mates in the first place. :-{E}

And then you come up with that and admit you found it hilarious. If that's not two faced, what is ?

Mind, it was hilarious.

Best I can manage currently is Charles and Camilla in an Indian, and the waiter asks if everything is alright, to be told that, as a matter of fact, everything isn't. On being asked "What's wrong, Sir", Charles says "Me nan's cold".

And not only your work colleagues might take umbrage at that. :-{E}

Everywhere you see 'b' in 'befinitely', read it as 'd'.

Even if this is the second time you've seen this post.

God knows where it ended up the first time if it doesn't end up here eventually.
