What was wrong with it ? For 10 minutes, it did not stop at any floor. Kept on oscillating from one to another. Finally stopped at the ground floor, but the door didn't open.
Thoughts going in our mind ....
Roomie : He was on another call from a credit card company regarding a huge outstanding amount. Later did he realize that we were stuck, and finally called Satya for help. Btw, even the called turned out to be a fake one.
Loomie : Was more worried about the Eco exam. In case the doors didn't open till hours, he hoped that somebody would sneak in a Eco book. After the rescue, he wanted to know how many girls were concerned about him.
Me : It was already quarter past two. I wanted some food badly. Was hoping that the food doesn't get over.
Satya to the rescue
He informed the people on the ground floor and went looking for the security guard. Meanwhile, a mini crowd had gathered. We could make it out from the noise level, but only Shivam's voice reached inside the lift. (My other loomie (AKT) happened to be outside, but he was more into his biscuit packet). Finally, the guard arrived and opened the doors. "This happens a lot", the guard said.
Lessons learnt
- Never call Ramki in case of an emergency.
- The Eco paper would not have been postponed had we remained in the lift for one more day.
- All the emergency buttons (with fancy red light) do not work.
- The food, as usual, wasn't worth the trouble.
- (Loomie) More girls were concerned about Man-of-Steel than him.
Nicely written Chawla...:)
