[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I press the "Close Doors" button on elevators when I see or hear people coming. I work on the top floor and hate having to stop and 11 floors before mine. When I finish drinking a glass of water at work, I put the empty/dirty glass in the office of someone who treats everyone poorly. Fun fact: I am not the only one who does this.[/quote] Wow. Not only an asshole but an idiot. The Close Door button is supposed to be disabled in the US. ADA. [/quote] The ADA is so passe.[/quote] ADA as in Americans with Disabilities Act? What the heck does the close elevator door button have to do with disabilities? Can anyone explain this?[/quote] So people don't shut the door on the blind guy with a cane; person on crutches; someone who is generally unstable on their feet; and, the elderly. Mostly thought it's to piss off impatient people who pointlessly poke at the button. [/quote] There is no law requiring the disabling. The elevators are supposed to have a sensor so as to not shut on someone as the doors are closing.[/quote] People like you are a pain in the ass. The ada prescribes specifically how long an elevator door must stay open. During that period, the door close button is disabled. Because of costs involved, elevator manufacturers don't make timing mechanisms to re-enable the door close button after the minimum prescribed time has passed. In anticipation of you next asinine questions, the door close button is still there because it always work in manual and fire department mode. [/quote] I see why you are on this thread with that nasty attitude that you have. Clearly being you is the answer to the OP's question. I simply stated there is no law because there is not a law, or the buttons would actually be disabled. Not sure what the hell your problem is.[/quote]
