Hesperado: I don't know; it sounds like the job of "lavatory lady" is prime pikngcis for the Turkish Muslim immigrants who keep coming into Germany.Which was my exact impression of the lavatory lady I encountered at , no less.Anyone traveling to Berlin who does not visit this store has missed one of the great spectacles of Western opulence. There are individual floors devoted to furs, silks jewelery and fine apparel, another for plasma screens and Bang & Olufsen stereo systems, another floor of Steiff Teddy bears and Me4rklin toy trains, another given over to Le Creuset cookware and Wfcsthof kitchen knives, another to Godiva chocolates and every luxury candy that you can imagine.Its top floor, which overlooks the bombed out ruins of , is occupied by a "cafeteria" which would put a lot of one star Michelin restaurants to shame. The sixth floor delicatessen has everything from Spanish saffron to truffle oil.The bottom floor gourmet food market is enough to give any foodie a case of the vapors:Each of those images is just one of ten different food counters with similar displays. The stone mushroom cured air dried Italian beef was one of the most sublime flavors I have ever tasted. Believe me, this is not just another traveler's .And there, among over one billion dollars worth of inventory within a single building, in the the top floor bathroom, is what was more than clearly a Turkish Muslim lavatory lady.Moreover, group discussion revealed that she was probably not even an approved store employee but some sort of ersatz "squatter" (pun intended). Go figure.
