I, uh, I had this thing.
I don't know why I was thinking about the other day, but when I was like 25, I had a girlfriend that had an apartment and I got trapped in the elevator for apartment and they had the phone in the apartment and she was like on the West side.
And I was like, Oh, call the guy that the emergency phone.
And like, I called the guy.
Yeah.
And the elevator.
And I was like, Hey, the elevator stuck.
What part of the building are you in?
And he's like, uh,
He said, I'm in Whittier.
Like, yeah, that's where the phone goes to.
And I was like, I remember thinking as if my whole life I'd been in elevators and stared at that phone and sort of pictured a guy in an office, either at the top of the building or the top or the bottom of the elevator shaft, just sitting by the phone.
On the balls of his feet.
Yeah, I didn't know he'd be two counties over.
I remember it was funny because I remember going, Whittier!
It was like Friday night.
And I like went out and it's like eight o'clock at night or something.
And I was like, no way.
And I had this like weird mom strength where I grabbed the elevator and started like wrestling with the door.
Like, come on, you bastard!
