I had a job where they disabled access to all printers. If you needed a hard copy, you had to email the document to the printer admins and they would print after reviewing it.

Similarly, they were too cheap to pay for zoom licenses so if you needed a meeting longer than 40 minutes, you had to email the zoom admins with the list of attendees and they would create it.

But getting a repeating zoom meeting scheduled was virtually impossible.

Did anyone ever tell you the back story for that rule?

The general answer is every stupid rule was an over reaction to something.

And the owner runs it like a gas station and assumes everyone is stealing from the till.
