Aiseh, super pai seh lar...
This incident happened a few days ago. I just got back from work and I was in the lift. When the door about to close, I saw a guy with 2 kids walking towards the lift direction, so I faster pressed the 'door open' button to wait for them. Even though I was pressing the 'open', but the door still continue to close, the guy finally used his hand to block the door from closing.
When we reached their floor, again, I pressed the 'open' button to let them go out. When they're out of the lift and when I released the 'open' button and was about to go press the 'close' button, I suddenly realized something. OMG!! I pressed the wrong button!! From the very beginning I pressed the 'closed' button instead of 'open' button, no wonder that guy looked at me like one kind... OMG, so embarrassed man... ~sigh...I'm always confused with the 2 triangles, facing in and facing out. Can't they just write 'Open' and 'Close' on the button instead of showing the symbols???
Argggg... until now i still feel very very pai seh.......

hahaha it happened to me also in office lifts, not only the arrows are confusing, inside the lift, both left and right side of the door have the buttons to close/open, but the magically confusing wonderful design is that they're opposite compared to the other opposite button (man trying to get this words also is confusing)
Example, on the right hand side panel of the lift, the open button is on the left, while the close is on the right, where else on the left hand side panel of the lift, the open button is on the right, while the close is on the left.
Bad joyce.
Next time look before you press. :P
