On a serious note, what do these buttons actually mean? We usually have numbers in our lifts.

Maybe someone has a more specific explanation, but I could imagine it just being shorthands for certain departments.

Like, imagine a hospital where the third floor is dedicated to, uh, new patients, so you press the NP button.
