This particular sign is posted at the desk in the Leo Palace bowling alley on Guam (one of the nicest bowling allies I've ever been in). It reads:
We will be Excuse Maximum One hour to use Karaoke Room In-case We have waiting Customer.All the workers we met there spoke great English but apparently the Japanese manager who ordered the sign, probably from a sign-maker in his home country, is pretty clueless. Leo Palace is owned and operated by a Japanese company.
