I was working part-time at a storage yard.
The rule was always to check if anyone was still around before locking up.
One day my new supervisor pull me side.
From now on, he says, “You lock the gat when you leave.
I asked, “Even if someone’s still in the yard?”
He said, “Doesn’t matter. Lock it. Period.”
So a few days later, I saw him way in the back inspecting something.
Didn’t say a word. Just locked the gate like I was told.
He called twenty minutes later, stuck and annoyed.
I said, “You told me to lock it no matter what.”
The rule quietly changed to. “Use your judgment.”
And that’s exactly what I do now.
