'We had to pay fifty cents to use a K-Cup': 30+ Jobs with silly rules that drive the workers crazy

These people have the strangest rules at their jobs, from bosses who limit their water intake to one guy who needs to email someone just to find a pen. As they shared to r/AskReddit, these people answered: "What's the most ridiculous rule in your place of work?"

Every job has its own rules, and when you're told them on the first day, you'll probably think some of them are so inane. As some people shared, jobs will think of the most highly specific rules imaginable in order to prevent employees from slacking off. Some people wrote in about their boss's measures to stop them from using the bathroom so much — one boss even limited his workers to a draconian two glasses of water per day.

Check out these wild ways bosses have made their offices a much dumber place to work. Then, check out these homeowners, who shared their HOA horror stories in this video.
