Japan Trivia #1,928
Did you ever wonder how the employees in department stores who have little access to windows know when to put out the umbrella condoms out and put a plastic cover over your bag when it's raining?
It's because the information ladies down the front look out for rain and when it starts, call in to the main office to tell them. They then play a special rain tune (usually some cheesy remix of a song about rain) which the employees then react to and prepare.
The song is different for every store apparently but the list ran across the screen too fast for me to note.
