title: Bob's Futile Life
description: The Morning News has a simply staggering piece that will have you laughing out loud (Perhaps you better go to the bathroom before you read this). Dennis Mahoney answers the question, "Why, when you're waiting for a lift (having already pressed the 'call lift' button), does someone always arrive after you and insist on re-pressing the button?" "You are a stranger to Bob. Your efficiency, reliability, and hidden motivations at the elevator bank cannot be verified, and so the button must be pressed again. No offense, but Bob will handle this himself, just to be sure. And yet to truly understand the root of Bob's action, we would do well to consider other futile activities in his life."
