Identify which rules govern the activity

At a fictional community printshop, the introductory session was compulsory for anyone using the shared presses. Dev arranged his first project in accordance with the posted booking procedure, reserving a session before bringing in his materials. A separate instruction about outdoor stalls was not applicable to his indoor printing session. The coordinator asked new members to identify which requirements governed their actual activity, since reading every notice as if it covered every situation had caused avoidable confusion during registration.

Dev understood that a compulsory session was required, even if he already had experience elsewhere. Acting in accordance with the booking procedure meant following its stated requirements, not simply choosing a convenient time and hoping that it was free. The outdoor instruction would become applicable if he later requested a stall for selling prints. By checking the scope of each notice, he could meet the relevant requirements without inventing extra conditions that the printshop had never imposed.
