I work in a building with 3 floors. Our elevator scares me. Probably claustrophobia from being locked in closets a lot by my older sister when I was a kid.
But even with that I like taking stairs.
I recently moved from the ground floor to the top floor. My desk has the elevator in my field of vision all day long. I've been mentally tracking who takes the elevator. I have to say the majority of people in this building who take the elevator could use the exertion of the stairs if there is no medical reason preventing them.
I work closely with one guy and when I go downstairs with him he goes for the elevator but sometimes says he "should" take the stairs and goes with me.
One new guy just left swigging on a diet cola as he entered the elevator. He could use more stairs and less diet cola. I rarely see him without one. The company provides free soda.
Sad. I have another friend who always takes the elevator and I've asked her why not the stairs? And she just says she's lazy.
It isn't that hard. The irony is some of these people have "Fitbits." These devices have become the popular jewelry here at work. Why??? Dear God why????
