Oh geez. It's their own damn fault for getting into the elevator OF A TWO STORY BUILDING.

They were cleaning ladies. They probably had a cart full of supplies and a vacuum cleaner to lug.

If they're the cleaning crew, they might have had buckets/vacuums/trash cans etc with them...

They may have been cleaning crew, with a full inventory of cleaning supplies with them.

They could be cleaning up and hauling all their supplies.

It's possible they were a cleaning crew and had to haul their cleaning supplies.

Perhaps the two women were maintenance sanitation engineers, and had some sort of supporting equipment with them that was easier to transport using the elevator.

 
MorningBreath [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 01:48:09 PM  
I hope they brought protection, I would not want one of them to get pregnant.

 
Crosshair [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 02:32:40 PM  
Not very long, there is only two of them. There is nobody else to spread nasty rumors about.

how long will they survive?

Depends on how many cell phones they have.

I would have resorted to cannibalism.

 
Mr_Smartypants 2008-01-06 05:11:48 PM  
Which raises the question, where would they be buried?

maybe they had cleaning supplies that required the use of an elevator. why hasn't anyone brought this up yet?

Clean-up on elevator 119...

There is no off loading in the red zone dammit...

maybe they were lazy fat farks, and were unable to walk up the stairs.

NEI - unanswerable - not enough information

are they:

1) hot?

2) blonde?

3) fat?

4) what ethnicity are they?

5) Do they give head? Women who don't aren't even women in my book.

 
libbyshome 2008-01-06 05:15:29 PM  
Answer: Until an employee of the building happens to go to work.

 
Dellirium 2008-01-06 05:16:34 PM

I can't argue this point.

This is SO last week.

 
drunkenmidnight 2008-01-06 05:17:09 PM  
Oh, also is the elevator a thunderdome? In that case 2 women enter 1 woman leaves.

 
Mugato [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 05:17:22 PM  
daneurysm: Oh geez. It's their own damn fault for getting into the elevator OF A TWO STORY BUILDING.

They were cleaning ladies, who are usually fat women, so you're right. They could have done well to hoof it up one floor.

 
fanbladesaresharp 2008-01-06 05:17:49 PM  
First rule of Fark: There is not to be any math.

That said, they will be there until someone decides to let them out.

daneurysm: Oh geez. It's their own damn fault for getting into the elevator OF A TWO STORY BUILDING.

Hey, maybe they had cleaning supplies with them, prohibiting them from using the stairs...like a bucket or a mop.

I like the moral of the story. It is their fault for not having a cell phone. Stupid polish janitors! Get some money and buy a cell phone LOSERS! GOD! I keep mine jammed up my snootsnout for just such occassions.

 
Dellirium 2008-01-06 05:18:18 PM  
Did anyone mention the fact that they may have been the cleaning crew and might have had a full inventory of cleaning supplies with them?

 
gmaki 2008-01-06 05:18:21 PM  
Wait, did they have a cup?

daneurysm: Oh geez. It's their own damn fault for getting into the elevator OF A TWO STORY BUILDING.

So how many floors does it have to be before you can get trapped and it's not your fault?

They're custodians, dick.

 
Dellirium 2008-01-06 05:19:41 PM  
They had One cup, but no toilet paper.

 
biohazard76 2008-01-06 05:21:32 PM  
If they had cleaning supplies with them, i imagine they could've used the associated bucket / cart as a bathroom, and not just the corner of the elevator (as stated in the article)... but then again, they are Polish...

/rimshot!

They were cleaning ladies so they may have had some plasma televisions, motor coils, fire place screens, and clock radios with them.

"If two women are trapped in an elevator on the first floor and they have six aspirin and two cough drops, how long will they survive?"

"A while?"

"Correct. How many movies has Netflix delivered?"

 
medius [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 05:22:00 PM  
2 Polish women . . . maybe they were there to change a lightbulb.

Wait, did they have a cup?

Bonus: mother/daughter action.

How many lesbians does it take to change a light bulb? 2 of them, 1 to change it and 1 to write a folk song about it!

 
evilboyevil 2008-01-06 05:25:05 PM  
Isn't the moral of the story actually to ensure elevators are up to code rather than to carry a cell phone with you at all times, an invention that didn't become popular until ten years ago?

 
headstone 2008-01-06 05:27:10 PM  
\How many polaks does it take to exit an elevator?
\\On the first floor.
\\\Evidently, more than two.

 
Jack Torrence [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 05:28:18 PM  
If they were cleaning ladies, then I hope they had the courtesy to clean up their puddles of urine.

 
LargeCanine 2008-01-06 05:30:21 PM

Winner. Thread over.

 
AngledLuffa 2008-01-06 05:30:28 PM  
Meh, I stopped reading as soon as I saw it was a woman and her mother. Boring.

 
Soni [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 05:33:48 PM  
so, i wonder if the captain and first mate of the FAILBOAT realized there was a phone built in to the elevator... It's right below the button you push to make the doors open.

 
Joce678 2008-01-06 05:34:12 PM  
"They probably had a cart full of supplies and a vacuum cleaner to lug"

So how come they had to poop on the floor?


PS: Isn't it bad to take aspirin on an empty stomach...?

 
rottenteeth 2008-01-06 05:35:29 PM  
Dellirium: They had One cup, but no toilet paper.

hey that reminds me of a video i saw once... can't remeber the name right now though...

 
Deadhouseplants [TotalFark] 2008-01-06 05:36:47 PM  
Two Polish janitors stuck in an elevator on the first floor of a two story building for two days. Come on, this is Fark and all, but make it somewhat challenging for us. I read the article to the point where it said they were Polish and smacked my forehead. Did the article mention anything about how the women need to push the buttons with the numbers one or two on them or the door open button?

 
T-Luv 2008-01-06 05:36:55 PM  
Soni: so, i wonder if the captain and first mate of the FAILBOAT realized there was a phone built in to the elevator... It's right below the button you push to make the doors open.

i love when people forget to push the button to go to a different floor and you catch them standing in the elevator like a complete moran.
