Did you know that when you are riding an elevator, it is polite to let women on and off first? I did not know this until I started working at my current place of employ, where my office is on the 22nd floor.
And did you also know that if you are the lone woman among men riding down to the first floor after a day's work and the elevator stops and you poke your head out and think the elevator has stopped on the third floor and therefore you don't get out and everyone else is kind of staring at you in a funny way and the doors start to close and one of the men has to reach out quickly and stop it from shutting and then you realize that you actually are on the first floor and that everyone has just been politely waiting for you to get a move on Missy, so we can all get out of here.... that it is extremely awkward when you do finally get off the elevator?
Let me tell you... it is.
