    I grew up in Boston, it was not only accepted, but expected.

    There's an etiquette to elevators and subway trains and buses, and really any other confined space- it's better for everyone if you let people get off before you try to get on.

    When I first moved to Phoenix, I was on an elevator at a mall, when the doors opened for my floor, two teenage girls tried to push their way past me and my wife... But I'm a pretty big guy, so I just kept walking. The one that was directly in front of me got knocked on her ass. I felt a little bad, I hadn't intended to hit her that hard... But only a little.
