A refresher for me: Reacquainting myself with the elevator buttons

For some very odd reason I was recently having problems finding the button for the ground floor in my condo complex's elevators.  No, it had nothing to do with poor markings on the buttons.  These were perfectly marked but it all had to do with my not being able to find the right button for the ground floor.

I struggled for a wee bit, even getting lost once or twice, but then Stephanie came to my rescue.  She found the perfect way to reacquaint me with everything.

First, she showed me how to locate the large button at the bottom of the group of buttons. This is the button, or should I call it the keyhole, where staff can insert a key to unlock or lock the elevator.  Next, she expertly guided my fingers to find the button for the ground floor, which is dead straight ahead of the keyhole.

The keyhole is very different to the touch in comparison to the other buttons.  It is more rounded, smaller, and is definitely different to the touch.

Everything worked like a charm after this and now I can navigate the buttons in the elevator without any difficulty.
