A man who lives on the tenth floor takes the elevator down to the first floor every morning and goes to work. In the evening, when he comes back; on a rainy day, or if there are other people in the elevator, he goes to his floor directly. Otherwise, he goes to the seventh floor and walks up three flights of stairs to his apartment. Can you explain why?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

OpenStudy (austinl):

Any thoughts?

terenzreignz (terenzreignz):

Guy's a midget, can only reach the 7th floor button. If there are others around, of course, he can ask the others to push the button for him. If it's raining, he has his umbrella with which he could push the 10th floor button :D
