However bad your Tuesday morning might be going, at least you’re not Guardian Special Projects editor Paul Lewis, who has been stuck in a lift for the last 45 minutes:
I am a stuck in an elevator with another guy. Engineers called. He just said: 'Dont worry, when the time comes, we'll decide who eats who.'

So the elevator engineer is on his way. No confirmation on when he or she will arrive. Anyone got any suggestions?

Tried to force open the doors. Didn't work. Security says lift engineer calls going to voicemail. Main thing I want is water.

Me and my stuck in a lift companion now discussing our chances of survival if the cables break. Three floors beneath us.

Guido looks forward to Reading the Elevator: a data-driven study into the causes and consequences of why the lift broke down…
