Workplaces can have many different rules and policies. Some of them make sense, and others don't. For many young employees, dress codes at work are off the table, as a 2019 study revealed that 33% of workers would quit their jobs if they had to wear formal attire.
Other company policies can be dangerous and detrimental to workers' health. Like the pressure Amazon delivery drivers faced from service partners, who denied them bathroom breaks. The company faced a class action lawsuit in Colorado last year because the workers said they suffered "degrading experiences."
The least the people who work in such companies can do is tell their stories online. So, when someone asked, "What's the most surprising company policy you've encountered that the public doesn't know about?", the thread quickly went viral. It had almost everything: from stories that might make you chuckle to companies seriously endangering their employees.
