General Quiz 1- Lateral Thinking

Dear 6E
Try this out. Let me understand how you think when you think.
Deadline: 30 January 2010

Lateral thinking Question 1

Question :

There is a man who lives on the top floor of a very tall building. Everyday he gets the elevator down to the ground floor to leave the building to go to work. Upon returning from work though, he can only travel half way up in the lift and has to walk the rest of the way unless it's raining! Why?

Although there are many possible solutions which fit the initial conditions, only the canonical answer is truly satisfying.
