A company I worked for announced that it had come to management attention that staff were socialising in the office, and that wasn’t allowed. To prevent it the doors would be locked until ten minutes before our official start time in the morning. I showed up at 7:30 the next morning for my shift and the whole team were milling around the front door because they couldn’t get in. Seems like they never delegated a manager to open up for us.
The policy was never rescinded, but they never tried enforcing it again either.
