The Revolving Mystery

It seems to me that some people cannot figure out the revolving door, when in fact it is very simple. I have seen several outrageous approaches that I will detail below:

The Cautious Approach: This person actually waits for everyone else to get out of the revolving door before attempting it himself. Whether scared to death he is going to somehow get stuck in the same section as another person or he doesn't feel he can keep pace with the other person, he prefers to play it safe. This type of person wears a seat belt while mowing the lawn.

The Timed Approach: This person stands there with a worried look on his face and moves his head like someone watching a tennis match. He attempts to calculate the precise moment that he should jump into the whirling frenzy. This type of person is good at math.

The Teamwork Approach: This person meets eyes with someone on the other side. They give the "help me out here buddy" look as if to say if we both work together, we can do this without anyone getting hurt. They also make sure to check on the speed of the other person to make a more unified approach as if they were one. This type of person is dependent and always follows.

The Total Avoidance Approach: These people are of two types. The one person is so scared to death of the revolving door that he avoids it altogether. He either uses the regular door or does not go inside at all. The second person is the rebel. He sees the sign that says "Use Revolving Door" and spits in the face of the person who made that sign. He feels this is his way to put it to the man.

The Normal Approach: This person walks through the friggin revolving door with no problems.

LOL! I calculate the perfect moment to jump in and make a 90 degree angle when exiting. Without the 90 degree angle exit, I will do another rotation. It seems crazy but it's true. I know what you mean, Jesse.

Haha - I love the examples - this person wears a seatbelt while mowing the lawn.

I always push them as hard and fast as I can. It's like a game. Can I get it to spin all the way around? Can I get it to land on $1 and make the showcase showdown?
