You might get either absolute refusal or slow subversion from me there. In my current place of work I was initially handed the utmost horror of horrors of style guides, namely the so-called google style guide. A thing that is optimized to result in code as unreadable as possible. Rebelling against that worked pretty well, so now the thing is gone. And, honestly, if I am ever going to apply for a job and hear that they use the google style guide I am not going to work in that place. I don't follow style guides. Style guides follow me. Currently planning the next rebellion as the utterly evil practice of demanding that every method shall be commented has emerged from whatever wretched place such things emerge.
