Why are Thai telephone poles square and why are there mirrors in elevators?
Thailand is a tropical country with many snakes. Round poles are easy for snakes to climb up, causing line failure, while square poles are difficult for snakes to climb up.

In fact, the first and most important purpose is to facilitate the disabled, so that they can see which floor the elevator has reached from the mirror without turning around or turning the wheelchair.

1. Let people have more visual space, so as not to cause depression.

2. Preventing thieves is like a mirror in a supermarket.

The above is purely a personal opinion.

It is convenient for disabled people to see the number of floors displayed in the elevator from the mirror. Disabled people in wheelchairs come in with their backs to the elevator doors and can't see the display screen. At this time, they can only see from the mirror, so that they won't miss the floor ... This is the main function of the elevator mirror ... Another point is to reduce their own ability ... In fact, this is secondary. ..

1, the mirror increases the sense of space

2, the mirror is easy to organize personal instruments.

3. The mirror is easier to clean.

4. Mirrors can reduce the visual dead angle, which is also beneficial to safety.

It takes a long time to wait for the elevator to go up and down the stairs. If you put on a mirror, you can tidy up your appearance, so you won't feel long.

6. Increase the sense of space inside the elevator and make it feel less narrow.

If a customer in a wheelchair wants to take the elevator, he must wait facing the elevator door like other customers. As soon as the elevator door opened, he went in against it. It is impossible to turn the wheelchair around and get into the elevator backwards. So when he got into the elevator, he turned his back to the button next to the elevator door and the number of the upper floor. What shall we do? At this time, the mirror brought him benefits. When he got into the elevator, he could press the floor he wanted to go to, and then he saw through the mirror that the back door was closed and looked at the digital display of the floor number. When he got to the floor he wanted to go to, he knew from the mirror that the elevator door was open and he could slowly shake his wheelchair and get out of the elevator.

A classic story perfectly illustrates the potential cost of putting questions into the topic box. This story is about a multi-storey office building in new york. The tenants complained about the poor elevator service in the building. They say it's too long to wait for the elevator during rush hour. As a result, several tenants threatened to cancel the contract and move away. The manager of the office building turned to a professional engineering company engaged in elevator system design and operation for help.

After listening to the description of the problem, the engineers made a time survey and confirmed that it was a bit long to wait for the elevator. So, they told the manager that there are three ways to alleviate the current situation. First, increase the number of elevators; Second, replace the existing elevator with a faster elevator; Third, computer control can be introduced. If so, you can choose either of the above two options. In this way, when no one is waiting for the elevator upstairs, the unmanned elevator can be controlled by the computer to go down to the first floor. Generally speaking, the old elevator must go to the top floor of the building before returning to the first floor.

The manager authorized a study to determine which is the best scheme. The research shows that none of the above engineering schemes can solve the problem economically because of the age of the building. Engineers say managers have to put up with this problem forever.

The desperate manager held a staff meeting, among which was a young graduate of personnel psychology who had just been hired. The manager asked everyone to work together to find a feasible solution. Although the rule of brainstorming is to make only positive suggestions, every initial suggestion is accused of some shortcomings and rejected. The room was silent. The only person who didn't take part in the discussion was the young expert in personnel psychology.

The general manager then specially asked the young man who had never spoken to see if he had any good ideas. Young people said they didn't want to express their opinions because every previous suggestion was met with a negative response. The manager rejected his reason and asked him to give his opinion.

The young people didn't pay attention to the performance of the elevator. What he cares about is that people only wait a few minutes before complaining. He asked himself, why did they just wait a little while and then complain? He concluded that complaining is the result of boredom. So in his view, the problem is how to make these waiters spend happily while waiting. He suggested installing some mirrors where you get on the elevator so that people waiting for the elevator can look at themselves or others in the mirror, but they can't see themselves looking at the mirror or others. The manager adopted his suggestion. Mirrors are installed quickly and at low cost. The complaints about waiting for the elevator for a long time also disappeared.

Nowadays, it is very common to install mirrors in elevator corridors and even elevators in high-rise buildings.
