I guess that was sort of my point.  I would have thought that refusal
to abide by a company-issued coding standard would be a firing
offense.  (There are exceptions, of course, but, generally, they
should be thoroughly supported by rational arguments for why the
coding standard shouldn't apply to the exceptional case.)  The fact
that a job posting needs to stipulate that only those people with the
ability to adhere to company policy will be considered seems sadly
redundant.
