This might sound familiar. I’ve run into it a few times over the years, but at a booking this week, all the elevators at a popular incall were out of service. That meant climbing 15 flights of stairs. I was carrying things, which added some weight to the steps, and definitely broke a sweat by the time I reached the door.
Realistically, I’d say 20 flights would be my upper limit; beyond that, the energy spent and your headspace might not feel quite as fresh when you arrive.
I’ve heard of people hiking up to the 30th floor, and one even close to the 60th (well done). Still, many chose to cancel and not bother, which honestly really sucks for the SPs.
It’s an inconvenience for everyone involved, including residents I saw hauling groceries and delivery folks making their rounds. The reality is that not everyone is fit enough, or willing to tackle that many flights, or will be late for their bookings.
So where do you draw the line?
How many floors would you tolerate walking up for a booking before deciding to cancel: none, 10, 20, 30, or 40+?
