How We Wait for the Elevator Correlates With Our Attitudes [Infographic]

by James Plafke | 9:45 am, November 2nd, 2011

Along with complaining about Mondays, another seeming cliche regarding everyone’s office is that the elevators in the building are terrible, something which I deal with on a daily basis. Column Five Media and Hunch got together to find out how people wait for the elevator, and what it says about them. Do you frantically push the button even though it doesn’t do anything after the first push? Do you press the button once then take out your smartphone and forget you’re waiting for the elevator? Do you want to know how either of these strategies affects the likelihood of you becoming a parent? No, really. That information, along with other interesting elevator waiting tidbits, can be seen infographically below.

    Sniglet: Elacceleration-the mistaken notion that the more times you push the elevator call button, the faster it will come.

    Really found this topic interesting and wanted to check it out, however, the grey text on the white background is near impossible to read. Bad form sir, bad form.

    So… button mashers tend to be uneducated, into pop-culture, and don’t really understand HOW technology works?
