Why are Swiss people so annoying in lifts ?

Why does every Swiss national desperately lunge for the 'door close' button the millisecond everyone has stopped geting in our out of the doors ? Was there some great Swiss Lift crises where all the automatic door close mechanisms failed en masse ?

They've timed their trajectory to the nearest nanosecond, and can't be waiting that extra millisecond, because then they'd be a millisecond late for work, and have to leave a millisecond late for Znuni, and get back a millisecond late from Znuni, and have to leave a millisecond late for lunch, and get back a millisecond late from lunch, and have to leave a millisecond late for Zvieri, and get back a millisecond late from Zvieri, and have to leave a millisecond late for the tram, and miss the tram by a millisecond, and then miss the train entirely and the whole evening's a half-hour late.

switzerland is famous for its watches so we should be exaaaactly on time, no?! funny how you came to think of it, will surely think of it smile before pressing the button next time so that gives you a whole second to jump in!

This made me laugh (love Ali's answer). Must be close to the same reason they press the "walk" button at the crosswalk 6 or 7 times in a row, thinking that even though it's lit if you press it, it will change faster.

Lol, I'd rather say they are always in a hurry to get the fastest from A to B!

Elevator doors are slow, and the last thing we want is for some straggler to squeeze himself into the elevator just as the doors are closing, which would make them open again, and then the whole point of using the elevator over and against the escalator or stairs (especially at the SBB train station), which was increased speed, would be defeated.

P.S. Stay here long enough, and you'll start doing it, too.
