Story about Lifts

Lifts have been around our lives seem ages. Sorry my history isn't all that good as to when it all started. Anyway, nowadays lift have changed so much for HDB Flats that it stops every floor. This is to provide the convienence of old people who may have problem walking up the number of steps. However, this has made many young people and middle age people to take advantage of this.

If you haven't notice it, even people who are staying on 2nd floor are also taking the lift just to get to their floor. What's up with that? It is 2nd floor only! Why some people even young people can't walk up the steps as a form of exercise and have to take the lift. I stay on the 5th floor and sometimes when I am not too tired, I will take the steps. For this reason, no wonder people are getting fatter and fatter because the lift reach every floor so why bother to take steps!

Still, complaining about lifts, here is the bicycle thing. Nothing against bicycle but I do wish some people would take into consideration during the morning peak hours that there are other people who would wish to get into the lift and rush for time too. If only some people with bicycle would know how to park their bicycle into the lift so that other people may enter, mornings would not really be a drag when you meet up with people with a bicycle!

Other times there are people who smoke in lifts. Are they so stress in the morning that they can't wait to get to 1st level to have their puff and must have it in the lift? Wonder why these people don't understand that some things other people might not want you to share with them. SMOKE is one of them! The worst part is having to breathe that second hand smoke. They might not die from the amount of cigarettes they take but others might die faster from breathing it!

So when you get into a lift, please please to take into consideration of other people. Not forgetting those who stay in 2nd floor, don't rely too much on lifts. For those who smoke in lifts, put out the cigarettes before you enter!
