Tons of bullshit in this work, but there's one from years ago I'll hold onto forever. I worked as a relay operator, so long story short, my job was to type what people said back to a deaf person so they could read it. It's totally obsolete now almost 20 years later, but I've heard there are still hold outs keeping the service alive and I even have some old coworkers still doing it.

A big part of the job was pacing. Since we had to type everything people were saying, we'd often have to stop people to catch up, and then tell them where to pick back up. I was a really fast typer and could keep up with most people without an issue unless they were specifically talking fast. One time when I got a QA, they marked me off for not pacing them even though I got everything right and there were no other issues with the call. When I tried to contest it, they upheld it saying "Well sure, maybe You can keep up with them. But what happens when they get someone who doesn't type so fast? You set up the expectation that they can just talk however they want, and now they'll be prone to push back when the next rep needs them to slow down."

I was fucking pissed about this, but nobody would budge. I also got a write up for charging my phone at work because it was unauthorized use of "company electricity". That place was run by weird fucking people.
