HOSPITAL ELEVATORS 

They never get used to the crazy disparities between the music coming out of their speakers and the tragedies going on inside their fake wood walls.

Elevator favorites like The Girl From Ipanema will play while a girl from Indiana dies from overdose.

Louis Armstrong’s rendition of It’s a Beautiful World won’t soothe a mother’s heart as she holds her sick child.

Dave Brubeck’s Take Five will only make the man who lost all the digits in his hand feel worse.

Henri Mancini’s Mr. Lucky’s Theme sounds cruel when the poor soul riding the elevator is a homeless man beat up by delinquents.

Though it looks like it couldn’t get worse, it does. When they finally gather enough courage to leave their jobs, hospital elevators find out that this is a job they can't move away from; only up and down.
