An elevator in your average condo building is a small closed room. If you are claustrophobic it can be a problem. I am quite claustrophobic, but for some reason elevators are not a problem for me. My problem is that I have a very good sense of smell.
Several months ago someone spilled a coffee/milk drink of some kind in the elevator, and of course, they didn’t clean it up properly. For two days the elevator smelled pleasantly of coffee. I don’t need to tell you where it went from there. For another three days it smelled like the inside of your average kitchen garbage pail. Then it was reported and the carpet was cleaned. For weeks, that small closed space smelled like a garbage can containing a cheap air freshener …………. It was awful.
Yesterday morning, as I stepped in the elevator, a pleasantly scrubbed man stepped out. This was a man who clearly loved his cologne. I did not. I suspect his wife sent him out on an errand so she could breath.
Ah but last night, my neighbors brought home pizza. I know because I saw them going in their door as I was locking mine. It was sausage with onion and there was no green pepper. Ask me how I know….
