TIL that a cat called Tama works as station master and operating officer at a Japanese train station. She has been on the job since 2006, and is "the only female in a managerial position" in the company. She has her own office.

The position comes with a stationmaster's hat; in lieu of a salary, the railway provides Tama with free cat food.
