If I am ever required to list a preferred pronoun, it's going to be either "Your Lord and Master" or "Attack Helicopter". And if they balk, fuck 'em for oppressing me. The best way to end a stupid ass system is to apply it until even its advocates realize how dumb it is. Similarly the best way to get a bad law repealed is to enforce it strictly.
Worked at a place once which was nice and relaxed, with everyone simply getting anything they needed from the supply dept themselves and getting on with their work. No stealing, no huge quantities going missing. It just worked.
One day, a new manager introduced a "great" new system where all supplies had to be requisitioned from the supply room with a little form that had to be reviewed, approved and stamped, they'd find the stuff, check the quantities, hand over the stuff and file the form away. Instead of making one trip to pick up everything we needed at once, me and a friend just started making multiple trips with a separate form each time. For every. Single. Thing.

Their "great" little system lasted 3 days.
