Bucket List

As a person Moncton Girl wants for very little..

- For Katniss to fall in love with Gale
- To be able to eat pizza everyday
- To buy new clothes and never do laundry

MG however gets nothing from the list of wants, and instead gets a big heaping of inconvenient and gets stuck in an elevator at a client site.

That's right. Every girl's dream. To be stuck in an old elevator with two co-workers and a stranger.

Here is how it went down:

The 4 of us hop in elevator after random lunch and head back to the office we are working out of on the 4th floor. Around the 3 1/2 floor we hear a big, scary noise and the elevator stops moving.

After randomly looking at each other and the stranger putting on a sassy attitude proclaiming "Ugh, THIS is the LAST thing I need today" - (because clearly, it's exactly what we need) we decide to open up the weird phone hutch and call maintenance.

No answer.

Stranger comes in handy and calls reception on her phone who tracks down maintenance. They poke around and then yell down to us that they have to call in the elevator company to fix the problem.

10 minutes of silence go by.

Coworker #1 exclaims: Soooo has anyone ever seen the movie "Devil"? It takes place in an elevator .. not sure how it ended.

Awkward Silence Continues.

Coworker #1 then decides to try and see if he can force the doors open... with a plastic spoon.

Stranger: oh, thank goodness now we can dig ourselves out of here.

Awkward Silence.

Continued Silence.

Still Silent

Finally the doors open - we all walk out and say nothing.

It was THE most un-climatic elevator rescue EVER.

Moncton Girl will still be crossing it off her bucket list. If anyone asks let's pretend a very attractive fire fighter rescued her and after a series of unconventional yet cutesy dates will propose.


MG is just relieved she got out before she had to turn Hunger Games on anyones ass.
