I was cutting it fine getting to work on time yesterday, got in the lift and pressed the button for level 2.
*CRUNK*
The lift jammed somewhere around level 1.
It was great! The light in the lift was on, I was only a floor above the ground (so I couldn’t see myself crashing down), and the book that I was reading had just got to a really interesting bit.
66 minutes and 40 pages later, the lift was manually lowered and the door opened.
The best bit of the experience was that my mate at work had taken over my first job of the day, and it turned out to be a real nasty one that took him 2 hours to complete instead of the standard 10 mins or so . (sorry Marcus :P )

I just wonder now when I will be able to repeat the experience by pressing the Emergency Stop button without raising suspicions.
