On proper abbreviation

Oh, Minnesota -
a great state somewhere up north,
or so I hear tell.

Abbreviated,
the letters would be MN -
not confusing "Min"

Kentucky, my home!
Excessive punctuation
is not in your name.

Abbreviated,
no period is required:
simply K then Y.

The Captive Network on the elevators here has the most infuriating propensity for incorrect state abbreviations. There's a whole list that I've seen, but the most irksome was "reported in Min yesterday" and "worst in Ky.'s history." We have nice straight forward abbreviations for each of our states that don't require creativity, punctuation, or confusing synonyms, thank you very much!

Elevators, it's always elevators.

Warm interior,
shiny silver doors spread wide:
elevator waits.

But when I enter,
floor chosen, you do not move?
You are slow! Go up!!

There's some little glitch in the elevator algorithm at work so that if the elevator is waiting for you on the bottom floor, doors open (aka, you don't have to push the button to call it) the doors won't automagically close when you choose a floor. Of course the "close" button does nothing either... you pretty much just have to wait until someone on a higher floor calls it.

On Load Balancing

Six elevators
Serving only 14 floors.
Short waits would be nice.

The elevator algorithm in the building here at work is nothing even -slightly- approaching efficient. I won't even start on how often the "floor beeps" get confused, or how often I hear the elevator whizzing by when I've been waiting forever. With such a high elevator-to-floor ration, I should NOT be having to wait 5 minutes. Srsly.

Elevator peeve:
I know you want to board it
Let me get out first
