Ok so...this morning...just got to my office building and hit the 'up' for the elevator. This lady walks in and stands a couple feet away from me, because obviously she has to go up too. Bell dings, arrow illuminates and doors to the elevator open up. Quick look inside shows no one inside so I get in and move to the left to hit my floor button. Lady walks in behind me, leans across me to hit her floor number and then just stays there...at my shoulder...like there's 10 people in the elevator with us. I mean really?! So I cough hoping she gets nervous and moves away from me but she just stands there. Really?! So I move my bag to my left shoulder, which bumps her, I say excuse me, but she just stands there. Didn't even flinch or give me a dirty look or anything.Your average size, office building elevator. With just me and her in it. Why she stood right next to me is beyond me.
You think maybe she doesn't have a good home life or something and just needed to be close to someone? Maybe her dog died? Whatever the reason...
BACK THE EFF UP! If I can hear you breathe, you're too close. If I can see the precision of your eye makeup, you're too close. If I can smell what you had for breakfast, YOU'RE TOO DAMN CLOSE!
Thank you. Carry on.
Hilarious...but not really! I have a big thing about personal space. In college, a friend did a study for a psychology class where she stood really close to anyone that came on the elevator. It was kinda funny and it sounds like the same situation you had except your lady wasn't experimenting. :-/
ReplyDeleteI hate when people are in my personal space!
ReplyDeleteI was rolling on the floor when I read this....literally I was on the couch and laughed so damn hard I rolled down to the floor....hubby was like WTF?!? This always happens to me....and its always some older person and their usually a tad bit heavier and breathing down my neck. Being short I get all the smells I would rather do without.
ReplyDeleteWow! Have you seen her before? People are weird!
ReplyDeleteLOL, that is weird! But I have to ask, why didn't you just move over if she was invading your space?
ReplyDeleteLMAO!
ReplyDeleteI love that you bag checked her! Brilliant!
Seriously was DYING laughing. How did she not know she was in your bubble! !
