Morning Ritual

I would say 3 out of the 5 mornings, I would bump into this dapperly suited man who lives several storeys below me.

We would nod and smile to each other as he enters the elevator and as soon as the elevator door closes, he would always perform this same ritual every time.

He would kneel down and tie his shoelaces!

Yes.  Did I say a dapperly suited man? 

How long could that possibly take him to do at home before dashing out of his door?  

Clothes make the man.  The fact that he has no time for this exercise which merely takes anyone no more than 1 minute to complete, is simply beyond me.
