| I haven't ever seen anyone do this in the United States, but I saw it in China and Italy. |

| ▲ | esperent 4 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | I've never seen anyone do this anywhere in the world including Italy. I've never been to China but wouldn't you learn quickly after getting in an elevator going the wrong way not to do that again? The only exception I can see if there's way more people than elevators and you just need to get spot at all costs. | | |
| ▲ | the_af 3 hours ago | parent [-] | | My wife always randomly hits the up or down button, then gets upset if I explain why she should only pick the one she really wants. She forgets the next time. I think some people never really understand how elevators work. See also: the keep open / close doors button. I had one building administrator explain to me we should add a delay of 10 seconds to the "quickly shut door" button because otherwise she kept getting her arm hit by the door. When I asked why we would add a delay to the button that's meant to reduce delays (why not simply wait for the door to close on its own, then?), and whether we should fix the sensor that prevents doors from closing if there's an obstacle instead, she just kept staring blankly at me. I don't think she understood me at all. Again, some people simply don't grasp how elevators work. | | |

| Because most buildings now they just put one button so people stop clicking both |

| ▲ | rsanek 3 hours ago | parent | next [-] | | That has not been my experience, and logically it doesn't really make much sense. If you do so, you are making the problem strictly worse. | |
| ▲ | what 3 hours ago | parent | prev [-] | | What? I’ve never seen that. The elevator needs to know which way you want to go. | | |
