The humdrum of every day the same like nothing ever changed! Sometimes you just have to do something, anything to break the monotony! Tomorrow I'm going to wear two different shoes. That should show everyone what a dare devil I am!! Nice work!

-Good image and
story to go with it.
-I like the succinct
description at the beginning,
along with the repetition.
-The transition is done well,
indicating a change is
taking place to
"change our 'always' lobby part."
-I like the ending, too!
-Good luck in the contest.

I got a chuckle out of this. Sounds like the writer was up to making any earthshaking changes. Just a small one. Good flash fiction when it has to be done with so few words. You told the story and had a surprise ending. Good luck with the contest.

Haha, that's so cute and quite an interesting approach to the prompt. I think it's good to break routines from time to time. All in all, I really enjoyed reading this.

Fun little short, short, short, short, short story of 60 words or less. I appreciate the elevator photo to set the scene. It sounds like 'he' and 'I' knew each other at least from the elevator, but the reader is allowed to decide who they might be. It sounds like a smile and polite words can reverse or rearrange an established pattern of behavior. The ending: Mission accomplished! seems to show that it was the speaker's goal to get something well-established to follow a new track. It did not seem to result in anything out of the ordinary, just a slightly different order this time around. Good luck in the prompt there.

This is a fun '60 word dash'. Now I am left wondering if the two of them will be taking turns to be the first one out of the elevator. Well done as always!

Ah, the joys of making a lefthand turn in life, even if it's just having coffee instead of tea! This is a complete story, but there's so much else that could be in the back and after stories.

This is a very cute and very well written 60 word dash you have penned for the prompt. You used very good descriptive words and very nice imagery. I enjoyed reading and reviewing this. Blessings, Teri

You've written an excellent flash story for the contest.
Sometimes, a simple change like that can lead to interesting results
and new relationship will form. Other times, it's just a fun moment.
Nicely done
Good luck in the contest
Robert

Sometimes it takes a jolt to regular routines to establish social contact. Your elevator poem shows just how true that is! I wonder if anything came of it.
