> The company explained that the employee had drinks after work and later fell asleep on the street, but when he woke up he realized that he had lost the bag containing the USB.
If he had gone to sleep in the train station because the trains stop running at midnight, and someone returned the wayward USB drive to him while he slept, with a little note and a can of Premium Boss for when he woke up all hungover, it would be the most Japan story of the month.
Only in Japan can you pass out drunk and wake up with presents and a caretaker. Unbelievable.
That reminds me.. someone I know very well managed to sleep past the only scheduled stop at a station near his home, and it was the last train for the night. But they helpfully made an unscheduled stop at the next station, just for him, which fortunately still wasn't too far away. Japan, of course. Trains in Japan are always on schedule, as in exactly on schedule, but they have margins to work with and could do that extra stop by just increasing the speed a bit afterwards.
