Post subject: | The woman I was in the elevator with yesterday |
I was going to attach this to my other thread, but I think this gets its own DOTW: My wife, my son and I are in the elevator after his pediatric oncology appointment and a woman gets on the next floor down. This is the conversation that occurred: Woman: Oh he's cute, where you at the allergy clinic? My wife: no (pause) Woman: Ear, Nose and Throat? My wife: no (pause) Woman: oh was he.. Me: We were at Pediatric Oncology The door to the elevator opens and we leave. Who the fuck asks why you are at the children's hospital with a kid? When, if ever, is this a good idea? I'm sure she meant well, but think before you speak. /end rant |

I was thinking that she farted on the way out of the elevator. |

Yeah Im sure she meant well, but you at least need to shut up after the second no, if not the first one. |

Good to see everyone is being levelheaded about this. |

Any talking in elevators is horrible. |

She should be put to death on live TV. |

Maybe "Caller Bob" was a tad overboard (right, Tad Overboard?), but I just like to keep to myself and get a little annoyed when strangers are a bit questiony. Why do you give a shit, lady? Realize where you are. |

I'm sure she meant well and was simply trying to make conversation. Ignorant conversation, but still. |

Post subject: | Re: The woman I was in the elevator with yesterday |
Yeah, I know she was just being nice but still she should have been a little more situationally aware. That's part of the reason why I didn't call her any names, though I understand why others would...it was douchebag worthy but she was trying to be nice. Can't fault her for that, just sort of pick up on the cues of the situation. |

Hard to say what any of us would do in that situation, to be fair to Psycory. Emotions run high. |

I didn't overreact. It was a lack of manners. |

I'll never understand sober people who want to talk in elevators. A simple hello is all that should be allowed and even that is pushing it. |

Post subject: | Re: The woman I was in the elevator with yesterday |
How many times have you sat there in a hospital waiting room, and looked around thinking "I wonder what he/she has?" I'm sure everyone has done it. You don't actually do it, because it's rude and none of your business. Same thing with inquiries in a HOSPITAL elevator. Small talk is fine, but small questioning is stupid. |
