Hi!

There's a telephone
in there for you to call for help if something does happen.

You won't always find a telephone, but there is usually also a (loud) alarm
bell that you can trigger by pressing a button. The elevator at my place of
employment is set up like this.

unless you're in the building where
the ******* Operator From Hell works.

Well, I am the systems operator...and somedays I definitely feel like
pulling something out of the BOFH's bag of tricks. Sometimes it's been
enough to write my own versions of the adventures.

:-)
