The silly seconds of your life when the glimmer on the asphalt makes you stop unexpectedly, move deliberately, and think philisophically.

Elevator Etiquette Question
When you're in an elevator full of people, and everyone on the elevator gets off except for you and the person that was standing directly next to you when it was full, is the expectation that the person that was standing directly next you move to the other, now empty side of the elevator? That's my expectation. So do it. Don't worry, I won't be offended that you don't want to stand in my space anymore, in fact, I'll be glad to be rid of you. I mean, we still have 7 more floors to ride down and I'm tired of breathing in your air. I hear the grass is greener on the other side over there...please go frolic.

Sounds like my escalator guy was on your elevator.
But you're "Purdy" maybe somebody'll see us standing close and think I am worthy of your hotness.
Other "Purdy" women will then think I'm worthy of them too.
It works, honest.
The other guys are right. You standing next to a good looking, good smelling woman in a small elevator and then when the other people get out you expect him to move? On his own? Yeah, that is going to happen.

Elevator etiquette is almost identical to urinal etiquette. Don't stand too close. Don't look at the other person. Don't talk. For God's sake, don't touch. And if you feel something splashing on your foot, time to go.
The other person not moving to the empty side of the elevator most definitely constitutes a breach of elevator etiquette.
I was once a victim of this type of breach, but my "attacker" went a step further and actually moved closer to me. That is highly uncalled for. If I'd had some mace, I would've used it.
