Does your work(School) have any stupid rules/policys?

[Ishamel]

At my school it was all-girls, and all the uniform rules were based around trying to stop people looking like sluts. No dangly earrings, shirts tucked in, regulation jumpers, long skirts etc. People would subvert this by wearing too much lipgloss, and rolling the waistbands of their skirts over and over to make them really tiny.

There was a no shorts rule until the ONE GIRL who always wore trousers' mother complained that she was getting hot in summer. Why this single girl couldn't wear a skirt like everyone else I have no idea - she was the ONE GIRL in shorts afterwards.

If I don't turn in a bunch of forms I don't get "full" access to my locker. I will have partial access. I'm tempted to not turn them in just to see what partial access is.

My old school had no hats, no trainers or boots(even if they were black) and no hoodies. I also had a mohawk which apparently wasn't allowed (the irony being that they told me to wear a hat to cover it, then shouted at me for wearing a hat). Needles to say, I wore a cap, a pair of Dr Martens and a hoodie every day... VIVA LA REVOLUCION!

Some epic contradictions right there I always love when school/parents go put up some lame ass rules only to contradict them selves. I always wear Hoodies/Caps and no school so far has complained about my Eybrow Piercing.

It wasn't really the school, it was just my ***** of a form tutor. She was truly evil, you should have seen her face when she spotted my tattoo. She told me I had to get it removed and phoned my parents, my mum told her to go f**k herself...

Apparently my old school now doesn't allow skinny trousers.

 

[AndyRock]

There were just the usual hair and uniform things as I'm British, but I think the worse was in my forth year at secondary school they introduced a rule that our bags had to be black or navy, nobody, not even the teachers really paid attention, so it was kinda forgotten about and everybody can keep their dangerous "individuality" (I mean seriously, do we all have to be boring drones that do nothing but absorb information then regurgitate it?). Thankfully my sixth form is allot better (one guy I know came in one day in a full sully suit from monsters inc costume for charity, and the teachers had quite a laugh about it, but didn't really care that much)

 

[Magicman10893]

TapouT shirts are banned because they "make students violent and promote fighting in school"
No bright colored clothing. Apparently it is too distracting.
No tears or imperfections on your clothing, anywhere.

These are just the three things thought up on the second week of school.

 

[Theninja'skatana]

No comically large swords(I was gonna be cloud too =( oh well )
Aslo dress codes suck no matter what

 

[arsenicCatnip]

Here are some of the policies enforced at Starbucks:

- Hair cannot be any 'unnatural' color, and store managers have the right to decide what counts as 'unnatural' (my hair was a very red shade of auburn, completely natural in my family, and I was forced to dye over it)

- Hair restraints must be black, white, gold, or silver.

- Shoes must be all black or brown, unless they are tennis shoes, in which case they may be all white. (you can get your butt chewed for wearing a black shoe with a single white streak on the sole).

- Nails must be kept neat (which is near impossible when they break constantly from being soaked in ammonium sanitizer for eight hours at a time)

 

[LightOfDarkness]

There was a rule at my primary school dictating when students of certain grades could play in the sand pit. And the teachers actually enforced it.

And my French teacher (who was a complete ***** about everything little thing) wouldn't allow me to work on some of my English homework after I had finished all my french work.

The most ridiculous rule is that I wasn't allowed to wear my hoodie hood because it was the middle of winter AND THE HEATING WAS OUT.

 

[BlumiereBleck]

You can't go anywhere in study center or academic options.

 

[LightOfDarkness]

Oh and I forgot to mention, the librarian's a complete ***** at my middle school, and wouldn't let anyone in once all the chairs were taken.

I only wanted to quickly go in and out to get a book, but nooooooooo. Chairs are soooooo important because without chairs, the Covenant, the Combine, the Super Mutants, the Enclave, the Space Pirate Union and their pet dragons that breathe evil, corruption and bad grades will descend and ruin our day.

Because I would punch them all back in the time it takes to make a sandwich. If you were the Flash.

What were we talking about now?

 

[smashmaniac64]

ugh....dont get me started >_<
blue or white polos only
blue pants or khakis only
no hats
for boys hair must not reach collar and ears should be visible
no carrying backpacks past locker
on dress code free days, no words on clothes, no sweatshirts with hoods
no cellphones
thats all i can think of at moment
other than that it depends on teacher, some will give detentions for no reason and some are cool

 

[dex-dex]

my old secondary school had some pretty weird ones.
we could not tuck our pants into our boots during the winter( the school puts out a metric tonne of salt outside and the salt eats the bottom of the pants and ruins them. and the school pants were not cheap)

we could also not have visible tattoos one of my fiends had to wear a sleeve over his arm for three years because he had gotten a tattoo on his innter forearm.

Since I'm a complete computer guy it's all I really do during lunch and break. However, in the library they have the most bullshit rules ever...
1. No Internet on the work computers. (for the most part, unless it's obviosly a site for info they will talk to you)
2. No form of any violent video games.
3. No watching people/friends play games.
4. No food (no eating kinda makes sence, however you can't even be carrying it)
5. No USB sticks (that one really bit me in the ass as I did a big project at home and brought it in on one)
6. If you are sitting at the tables you MUST be reading a book, no sitting or talking quietly.

Also, the librarian can monitor your screen from his computer, and even make a message pop up with whatever text he wants (was once playing games on a work computer when an error popped up saying get back to work or leave). Not to mention the librarians are the dumbest people Iv'e ever met, they actually thought flash games could install viruses and that USB sticks were harmful.

However one time I stuck my whole SWRC folder onto my USB stick and brough it in when they were gone for the day, copied it to everyone elses profile, and had a 6 player multiplayer match

My school is pretty good with rules. Though my friend goes to a Christian college and they don't observe labor day.

 

[Levitas1234]

No smoking on school property, no coming to class on drugs and a few other rules are really the only rules enforced at my school.
I break them everyday but have never been caught so i don't mind.

 

[gabe12301]

In my school you cant make the gun sign with your hand because it's a death threat.

Talking about halo isn't allowed in my school because I said wraith tank and my teacher though I said something wrong and the school is afraid of me flying a banshee through the window.

No talking about guns because it's not like my whole class kills at least 50 people a day in MW2.

 

[skitzo van]

Well mine just opened two weeks ago, so its really leniant, I mean there's a girl with dark pink hair attending. But the one thang that pisses me off is that we have to stay in the lunch area at all times. It's a four by four school so I spend a lot more time around the same people, so maybe I wanna get the hell away from all the crap I hear all day. Ooh that was a cool rhyme, anyway I understand why we have it but come on, the teachers constantly walk by and say hello to me, why would I even think about doing narcotics?

 

[Bat Vader]

My school was pretty easy going on the rules. Students were not allowed to wear hats in class but were allowed to wear them in the hall and the cafeteria. The one rule I did not like was the one where we were required to go to every assembly.

I could understand the requirement to attend an assembly with a special guest speaker but the ones that were held just to raise school spirit seemed ridiculous. I would have liked to have stayed in class and finished my homework instead of having to go to an assembly meant to raise school spirit and raise morale for the sports team.
