User Experience = FAIL!
This is a picture of the emergency phone compartment in the elevator at my work.
Just a few user experience issues here:
- It’s a phone and it’s locked up, why?
- Break glass to open door. So is there some sort of triggering mechanism on the lock where it unlocks once the glass is broken?
- What kind of special emergency phone is this that has to be locked up?
- How do we know there is a phone? You can’t see it behind the glass.
Thank GOD they decided not to lock-up the stop elevator and alarm buttons or somebody would be in a pretty pickle.

I think that as a safety precaution, you should break the glass to make sure there actually is a phone.

Hmmm... How can I break the glass while making it look like and accident? Hmmm.
