Anyway, other than the snidely condescending remark and the gallant thrashing of the impolite miscreant, that was pretty much what I was going to say when I caught up.

This is not really a response to NotBob, but his was the latest post and I just hit quote...
So anyway, WHAT IS IT WITH YOU PEOPLE AND THE ELEVATOR THING?!?!?
I mean, if the elevator is super-crowded, you get off if you're in front to let those whose stop it is get off -- regardless of whether you're a chick or a dude.
If there is enough room to manoever (I think I misspelled that...) without elbowing people in their sensitive parts, then do so and clear a path to the door. DUH!
I have never encountered this type of difficulty (or anything approaching this level of hand-wringing-inspiring angst) over elevator-alighting ettiquitte in my ginormous office building.
I will, however, concede that there is an odd aberration of "chivalry" when it comes to letting women on the elevator first -- why the elevator of all places? Just strange, that's all -- but the disembarking question has never reared its (apparently) disfigured head.
