I don't do coding styles that aren't the "standard" for the language or aren't done by a tool (or at least done by a compile time add on program). I just change employers.
You're paying me 6 figures, you can make reasonable guidelines about things and expect professionalism but not mindful, constant compliance with arbitrary rules. It drains self control and concentration to follow huge coding standards with lots of minutia (Always put a contract with X Y Z above every function, always put stupid ass hungarian in front of your variables, etc).
