I'm doing a course in an adult education centre and we're not allowed to use the main door to the building. Who's using it?! The receptionist?
They said it was because of the image, incase we wear hoodies, or look dirty (as you do) or something horrid like that. So we're carted in and out the back entrance where the rubbish is collected etc. Who the hell comes up with these rules? Should there be a dress code for certain entrances? Also, me and my classmates are all regular, self-respecting adults. It's not as if we hurl abuse at people walking by.. Wow, I'm really annoyed now.
Enforced by the queen receptionist!

No jeans except on "casual Friday". I hate polyester pants.
Imposed by a male employer and enforced by a male supervisor. I'm a male... and I have no problems with it. It's a rule in the Company Policy Manual.

Not the place where I work now but another one a few years ago. If we were 1 minute late in the morning we had to work 5 mins that evening. Male employer.

When I worked for the corporate headquarters for well known national fish restaurant, we were not allowed to bring a food from another restaurant in the building, not even a cup. So, if I wanted to grab lunch at McDonald's or Arby's and work during my lunch hour while I ate at my desk , I could have gotten fired. My supervisor was male, don't know why that would matter to your question though.

You must fill in a form and have it signed by your manager if you want to send something by first class post instead of second class. This form will then have to be processed by the mail room before the mail can be sent.
The head of the mail room is a male but his boss is female, I don't know which one decided on that ridiculous rule.

That employees not allowed to take their clothes off and run around the building naked after hours. This is the rule at the Hamilton, OH prosecutors office see link below.

Used to work at The Disney Store.Their grooming guidlines for female staff includes a measurement of the length of fingernails and our assistant manager actually used to measure them and make us cut them if they were too long.I left!

Having to look busy when I didn't have anything to do during my time at CLEVELAND COUNTY COUNCIL. God I hated that job.
My imidiate boss a Mr. Stuart XXXX was so anal it hurt. Wish I worked for him now, he wouldn't know what's hit him.
Yes not a rule as such but an instruction, look busy ffs.

Not to make personal phone calls on the company phones.
It was a male manager;
