Fixing the Elevator

I am with other passengers in an elevator. The elevator gets stuck between floors. The dream skips forward, the other passengers and I have been stuck for several weeks. We have stopped at an in-between floor with a small flat outcropping with a couch and a television. I recall that everyone has acted disorganized and selfish. I am on my belly trying to clear away some sort of material that is hanging in the elevator shaft. I get up and look at my computer console (in the elevator). Someone approaches. She asks me how the progress is going. I say, 'fine but it will take another week or so.'
