I work for a healthcare company, who have all kinds of stupid rules, like:
You can't go out in the garden unless a patient is with you. Even if loads of litter has blown into the garden and I want to gather it up and bin it for health and safety reasons, I have to either take a patient out into the freezing cold with me, or leave it.

You can't drive a vehicle anywhere unless a disabled patient is a passenger in it. So when we needed to take loads of broken stuff to the tip, we had to load a wheelchair in the vehicle first, pile crap around the patient, then make two trips to the tip, instead of just one.
...etc. ...
