LOL seriously? Where do you live that every broken rule is immediately punished? Or even the majority of them?
Rules are there so when they do decide to punish you they can be like "You were warned... You chose to break the rule."
While this may sound crazy, people skate by breaking rules all the time and may never get caught and/or punished even once. People speed on the highway, cheat on their taxes, cut in line, lie, steal, etc... Hell there are even a good number of unsolved murders out there. It doesn't make any of it right or fair but it happens and the world goes on turning without even noticing. Crazy I think.
I would be willing to wager there is not a single person in the world over the age of like 12 that has never lied, cheated, stolen, or broken some rule at some point in their life and got away with it.
TL;DR - Everybody gets away with breaking the rules on occasion.
Also, that tl;dr was originally everybody cheats which now has everybody hurts by rem stuck in my head. I hate you all. And you most of all ADHD!

All I am saying, is you can't expect people to follow the rules if you don't enforce them all.
Any parent knows this, any teacher knows this, anyone in a position of power knows this. If I let my employees come late once without repercussions, they will do it all of the time, it really is that simple.
