I have had the same experience of knowing about another lead whom the guys were talking about and was a dear friend of mine. Also am not interested in the diaper stories of your kids. <br />4) People who smoke and then enter the lift , i mean can't you just have a chewing gum or mouth spray duh!!?? <br />5) Loud speakers - its so obvious to not get network in the lift yet people keep saying hello hello hello hello.<br />6) I have a rush folks - well i think its not just the elevators but every where be it the metro, the bus<br />Another thing that i have noticed are people who carry backpacks and would wear it on and enter the lift that just takes space for another person. I mean you can put your bag down so that someone who is abou to miss the office bus or cab can enter the lift.<br />A good read and i am sure all corporate guys would be able to relate to :) I think as part of the corporate training, elevator ettiquettes need to be included too along with verbal and written ones.<br />Happy Weekend Soumya!!<br />P.S - do you know any reliable Migraine Doctors in Blore???Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14961478413383063859noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-52499317583320852922017-05-26T12:51:30.843+05:302017-05-26T12:51:30.843+05:30I'm one of those music lover people :P
I get...I'm one of those music lover people :P <br /><br />I get too scared to pick up or call someone on the phone while I'm in the lift. All because of some random bit of information I read that 'using your mobile phone to receive calls or make calls could cause the elevator to explode'. Maybe the person spreading this info was someone who disliked 'The loud speakers' too? :D<br /><br />This post is super hilarious, Soumya! A printout of this post should look be stuck on to the insides of every lift! :DAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04865126680254886813noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-81271601305767426542017-05-25T16:10:52.702+05:302017-05-25T16:10:52.702+05:30Hehe, this was a fun compilation.

I am sure most of us have encountered many if not all of these various types. To me the most annoying ones are the fools, the loudspeakers, and the cribbers. Oh and the ones in a rush - so exasperating! Having said that, for the most part - I find the lift=washroom people extremely amusing. I mean it's an acquired skill after all, to be so oblivious of your surroundings. :D Shanaya Taleshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08053129459391925174noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9140698802730756464.post-14279481928176542812017-05-24T21:24:02.307+05:302017-05-24T21:24:02.307+05:30Your post left me in splits 🤣🤣.

Needless to say, your observations are bang on. My pet peeves are people who smell either due to BO or excessive perfume. It drives me nuts! Then those stick to you folks. Why can't people respect personal space? Then those loud talkers and belt adjusters! Phew! I really like your corporate quirks series. 😊Rachnahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02275266551382931603noreply@blogger.com
