When I worked at Wimbledon Tennis Tournament they had a team of lift operators whose job it was to push the button. Definitely seemed like a bullshit job to me at the time. I'd be moving supplies up from the basement and they would be sitting in the lift reading a book. I always felt like pushing the button myself as it would have been quicker, but I always let them. Thinking back on it I'm pretty sure some company was profiting from them being there.
