I was stuck in a lift at Heathrow today. Ive had a phobia of Lifts ever since my mother was stuck in one when i was 5 and I was left outside banging on the doors trying to get them open (I had decided to take the stairs)
Anyway since then I have never gotten in a lift, but today I did and guess what? (if the thread title didnt give it away) it gets stuck.
Anyway this person in the lift next to me was freaking out, constantly pressing the alarm. This Korean women is closing her eyes, she looked petrified. It was getting pretty hot in there, an older couple from New Zealand were trying to get a signal on their phones. Another guy is trying to phone his wife who took the stairs. My family are in the lift also and as per usual are making light of the matter.
Anyway it took the heathrow staff 30 mins to hear the alarm, 30 mins? wtf. It may not seem a long time, it actually isn't but surely it shouldnt take that long to pick up the damn phone.
Anyway (wow i say this word alot eh?), my mother who is going to India to see her family especially her mother who is very sick at the moment saw this as a sign not to go (she ended up going though), also seeing as we were in a minor car crash on the way to the heathrow added to her concerns.
But my original point was, why do lifts hate me?
