This is one thing to try to find out when one applies for a job. What kind of stupid requirements are there and is this company prone to senseless prescriptions? Even if one thinks that a particular senseless prescription is not very burdensome to oneself it still indicates an inclination to senseless prescriptions. One should avoid such places when one looks for a job. And that actually is a risk that management is perhaps not very aware of. The people who have the most choice of places to work can just decide not to work for you if you like to push your employees around.
