Wow, a lot of rules. Probably why I only worked for other companies for 7 years and then went on my own. #2 was always a problem for me, because if I didn't do it, it usually didn't get done. #3 was the big one and now at almost 63 I am paying for it big time. We always did what ever it took to get it done which I now look back and say it was stupid but now the pendulum has swung way to far the other way and kids can't do anything because of what might happen. And #8, I never had a job that offered benefits other than the opportunity to work and make a bit of a living. Around here back in the late 70's-early 80's most mechanics made around $4 to $5.00 an hour and no benefits.
