Is there a leak in the elevator when you get to a  cretin floor?
The sun was raising up above the high
and dense entangled spider's web.  The dew
was dripping from the silky strings and down
through canopy to underbrush.  It splashed
the puddle making one more fountain spring.

Is there someone on the higher floors that he doesn't want to see that only comes out on the rainy days?

Can the man see his work from the 6th floor?

K&K4ever

Is there a rule against taking the elivator past the sixth floor on rainy days?

I didn't really understand this question, but I'm guessing it doesn't matter.

From the 6th floor, can the the man see the area that he is employed at? That's what I was asking. Is the answer still the same? :]

Yeah, it really doesn't matter.

Here's a hint, guys. A pretty big one, but not a dead giveaway.

HINT: What is different about your gear when it's a rainy day?

Gatsby

Does it have to do with him carrying an umbrella?

K&K4ever

Are the gears rusty on a rainy day?

Oh! The man is short (dang must be REALLY short) and can't reach the buttons beyond the 6th floor button so on rainy days uses his umbrella to push the button to his (the 15th) floor.  On nice days, he can only push the 6th floor button (unless a tall person gets on the elevator with him) so he has to walk the stairs the rest of the way.
Life is too important to take seriously.  Seriously.

You got it! Good job.

   
Next Puzzle: Fredrick and Brad were in a room, talking. Fredrick said, "The terror of flight." Brad replied, "The gloom of the grave." Brad was then arrested.

Aren't "The terror of flight" and "The gloom of the grave" part of our anthem?
