When you live on a floor higher than the third, then the elevator ride, especially at the beginning of the working day, is guaranteed to turn into a stop-attraction for collecting all the neighbors on the staircase on different floors. There is little pleasant in this, especially if you are already late somewhere. Sometimes you want to be a "healthy egoist" and ride the elevator in splendid isolation! The most interesting thing is that there is a completely legal and simple way to fulfill your little "dirty" desire.
Collecting passengers by floor is the main problem in using the elevator. This is especially true for the present time with not the simplest and most calm epidemiological situation. Staying in tight spaces with strangers or unfamiliar people for long periods of time, especially if they are not using personal protective equipment, is not a good idea.
