I wonder why the events of 9/11 seem to have caused so many people to be afraid of flying, and yet no one seems to have developed a fear of tall buildings. So, when someone tells me that they have a fear of flying, and use the events of 9/11 to justify their fear, I like to point this out.
Now I work on the 26th floor of a building and sometimes I think about it, especially since I ride an elevator that goes from the first floor to the twentieth. SOmetimes I wonder out loud what would happen if the elevator got stuck between 1 and 20, just to freak out everyone else on the elevator. It usually does.
I've never worked on the 26th floor of anything before, and it's nice being able to check on traffic just by looking out the window. Like most places, executives all seem to work on the top floors. I don't know why that is. People seem to think it's some type of status symbol, and I guess it is, unless the building is on fire or something. Then it just means you're the first one to die.
