so we have a 7 story building, with a basement. 8 elevator stops...

how many times do you think you could go from the basement to the top floor on a friday afternoon at 3:15 without anybody else getting on.

i would say we are about 70-80% full.
81 is now off the air

    Where I used to work, it was 17 floors and I would use the service elevator and I would shoot right on up to the 16th floor.

    But I was also in good with all the maintenance guys so nobody bothered me about using the service elevator. :D

    Your place, at 3:15 on a Friday, the odds are probably pretty good.

    If it's any place like this place, most of the people are out of here by 3:15 on a Friday. :lol:

    I'm going with three. Once up, then down, then once up and then you'll get hit.

    I think you probably would only make 1 single trip up. That's it. :lol:

    yes/no?

    regular from the basement - one trip up, then you'll get hit halfway down.

    wow... not even one full ride.

    just thinking about it..the up part has to be the least risky....i'd say on average when i go from the basement to my floor, i stop at the lobby once every 3rd or 4th trip....coming down is going to the hardest part, since on the down swing, any floor going down could get on, unlike the up ride, where only the 1st floor is going to get on. make it past the first going up and you are golden to the top....except for the 5th to 6th floor...i think there is a company that has offices on both. :? :lol:

    the options are only zero or one ...

    if you do manage to make it up ... by the time you ride it back down and try again ... i'm sure it will be 3:16 ... :lol:

    i could post updates....but the cell reception in the elevator shaft isn't very good....

    uh huh huh...you said shaft. :lol:

    but if somebody wants to stop by the office, they are welcome to post updates when each trip is complete. :lol:

    perhaps we can station a member on each floor to report on potential passenger issues...

    yes, this is speedy reporting from the 4th floor....we have two people looking to go down...

    thanks speedy

    back to speedy...with an update....yes, this is speedy and those two passengers took an empty elevator...81 has safely passed this floor....back to you DS

    thanks speedy..

    speedy...you have an update

    yes DS....a gal just exited her office...looks like she is headed to the restroom...floor is clear...back to you ds

    :P
