Japanese company officially bans employees from licking fingers when handling papers or money

Keep your saliva in your mouth, not on things other people are going to touch, taxi company says.
Yokohama-based cab company Sanwa Kotsu has an undeniable quirky, fun-loving side to it.
This is, after all, the company that offers Tokyo-area taxi rides driven by ninja and “pretend-they’re-not-there” kabuki stagehands.
But Sanwa Kotsu is still a legitimate company, and a Japanese one.
That means a commitment to sparkling customer service and proper business decorum, and so the company has recently installed a new employee policy regarding proper document-handling protocol.
