Today's Elevator Tip.

If you are alone in an elevator heading towards your floor and find it becoming immediately necessary to fart, quickly push the button of a floor further along on the path you are going (e.g. if you are going up to the 14th floor push 18, if you are are going down to 4 push Lobby as well). What does this do?

Well, if you happen to have a co-worker waiting in the elevator bank to get on, you have now narrowed their chance of getting on to 50/50. Versus if you just let it stop on your floor, your co-worker will have a 100% chance of getting on because at that point the elevator is directionless.

The downside? If your co-worker does get on the elevator they will think you are a smelly person who can't push the right button on the elevator. This however might keep you off of some steering committees and task forces which is not always a bad thing.
