Was I in the wrong here?

Not really. I'm born and raised the hospitable South, and "3rd floor, please," if said in a congenial manner, rather than a gruff and demanding one, would be a perfectly acceptable request.

You just have to realize that there are snooty, fvcked-up, rude bitches in this world - both male and female. Shrug your shoulders and get over it. :thumbsup:

Yeah, it does sort of depend on how the OP said it. Tone of voice makes ALL the difference, but ordinarily it's a perfectly OK request.

OP, you should have stared at her for a second, and then given her a penny and said "Here, have a tip."

I walk into the 5 story building where my class is. I walk into the elevator, behind 2 other women. The first woman to walk into the elevator is standing right next to the buttons. I say "three, please." She gives me this nasty look and she pushes button three. Then she yells loudly in the small quiet elevator "Anyone else? Fourth floor, fith floor?" And then she just glares at me for a minute.

Was I in the wrong for asking her to press my floor button for me or was she just being a nasty b!tch?

Im in elevators all day, whether it's at work or at school, and I always offer to press the floor buttons for people. I say "where are you going" and I push the floor.

When she asks, "Anyone else?" then reply in different voices, "Yeah, fourth floor." "Oh, fifth floor if it's not too much trouble. Hurry up too, please!"

You said, "please". Though I'm the type that says thank you, had I been in her position, I wouldn't have thought anything about it if you didn't say "thank you". You were good, she overreacted.

Personally, I'd feel more annoyed if someone reached in front of me and pushed the buttons. Probably because of that personal space thing, or I just think that for all their effort, I could've made it easier if they just kindly asked me to press a stupid button.

She was the one being rude. When she made her comment I would have said, "I'm sorry, most people are nice enough to ask which floor when they're next to the buttons. My mistake."
