I enforce ISO 8601 for the shared storage in my office. Before I got there, files were kinda stored in all kinds of formats, but mostly month first.

I tell the person under me she can store her files in her user any way she wants, but if it goes into shared storage, it's ISO 8601. I even have a folder in there called !Date format: YYYY-MM-DD Description to help anyone else remember.

Haha I did the same.

It was the Wild West, no standard, everyone used their own date format all in the same shared storage.

I've got most of the office doing it correctly now
