Pet Peeve #84

Look, people, I know the elevators in this building are godawful slow, but pressing the down button when it's already lit does not help! I understand that you're frustrated at the long wait in the second floor lobby, but how do you think your obvious contempt for my button-pushing skills makes me feel? What, do you think the elevator's not coming because I don't know how to push the button properly? I've been pushing buttons since I was three, and even then I knew that when the button is lit you don't have to push it again! Of course, there might be something magic about your touch that I don't understand, never having experienced it myself. If so, let's talk about it over red wine at my apartment. In the elevator lobby, though, all bets are off. Stop pushing my buttons!

Thank you.
