Today, I got trapped in my building's elevator for over an hour, with my dog who I had been rushing outside with because he had explosive diarrhea. FML

Fall
Dead leaves, the first cold of the season and an umbrella flipped inside out: fall, the season of grace.
Today, the elevator got stuck in between floor 4 and 5 at my doctors office. I had been having violent diarrhea. It was the reason I was at the doctor. Elevator was stuck for 35 minutes. During that time, I diarrhea'd in my pants twice. There were seven other people in the elevator. FML
Today, I spent half-an-hour trapped inside my dog's crate. The door locked behind me as I squeezed myself inside to stroke her. After bellowing at my family in the garden for what felt like an eternity, they came through just to laugh and take pictures. FML
Today, I got stuck in an elevator for 45 minutes. I am an elevator mechanic. FML
Today, after being trapped in an elevator for 4 hours, I really had to pee. Just when I decided to pee in the elevator shaft, the lift doors opened. FML
Today, my dog got his head stuck in a container, panicked, and shat himself all over the living room. FML
Today, my dog had diarrhea in his cage. While I was carrying his dirty bed downstairs to the washer, he ran by and tripped me. FML
Today, I worked up my courage and took an elevator for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, it was also my first time getting trapped for several hours in an elevator. FML
Today, my boyfriend and I wanted to kayak. On the way, I told him I had to go back to our hotel because I needed the bathroom and didn't want a public one to smell. Once back in the elevator at the hotel, it got stuck. For an hour. I pooped myself and had to wait 40 minutes after that for help. FML
Today, I got stuck in an elevator for well over an hour while riding it up to my weight and fitness class. Very funny, universe. FML
Today, I got stuck in an elevator. I called the fire department and told them where I was. They said they'd be right there and not to panic. It's hour 6. FML

I take it you didn't have the doggie bags necessary and didn't want to try playing catch as an alternative resolution

I'm concerned that you were stuck for over an hour and nobody came to help?! ok so the cell phone might be jammed but I've seen in several movies that there are emergency exits on top of elevators, you could have done something!

Yeah, anyone who gets stuck in an elevator should definitely climb out through the man hole and into a dangerous space that they know nothing about. Oh, and don't forget your dog who has explosive diarrhea - pull him out too. You watch too many movies, go outside and see the real world.

That's honestly a last resort if nothing else works and if you were advised by preferably an Emergency worker or the technician

I too am shocked op had to wait over an hour in a trapped elevator! What if there was a fire in the building or something? And isn't their a phone in the elevator to call for help? I would want to have a conversation with the super or whoever is in charge of the elevators in a case like this. Op could've been sick in there or any other number of things could've gone wrong. Freaky.
