"It's a feelgood option like a lift door close button."
What's with a lift door close button? Open/close buttons certainly does work in my apartment building and pretty much any non-ancient lift I've encountered. Or do they still do nothing in USA?
- vosper 9y agoIn my recent observation, in the USA they do nothing, but people still sometimes press them. But in South East Asia they immediately close the lift door, everyone uses them, and it's great. It might be that the lifts I was in in SEA were all newer (as were the buildings) than most of those in the US.
- yoz-y 9y agoI have remarked that people from China always use the close door button. At first it weirded me out because I always waited for the door to close. In my apartment the close door button is a trap because one has to hold it during the whole closing door procedure and maybe 1 second more, otherwise the door will open. It usually results in more time lost than if one just waited for the door to close.
