A Balance of Harmonies: Things Past

At my work we have audits to make sure everyone in every store is following corporate policy. On the face of things that’s good, but the people that makes these rules can’t math (among other things). We are supposed to put three ounces of meat on our sandwiches. Three ounces is three-sixteenths or .1875 of a pound. According to the rules we have 10% leeway on both sides, but then it says .168 to .192, which is not only centered around .18, but it’s less than 7% leeway. Then the state health inspected came in the other day and pointed out that one of the things on the audit is the opposite of both state heath regulations and our own corporate health regulations.

Someone up there is making arbitrary rules just to show they are indispensable.
