Murphy's Elevator Laws

  • The last man entering an elevator going up goes to the lowest floor. Sent by Dimple Venigalla.
  • Conversely, if you are in a descending elevator, the last person to enter will punch the highest floor. Sent by Bob McLaughlin.
  • The first person needing to exit the elevator will always be the person farthest to the rear of the elevator. Sent by Sandy Schlee.
  • The chances of the elevator not working are inversely proportional to the weight you carry multiplied by the number of stairs you'll have to climb.
