Are companies really THAT strict with their dress codes?

Got hired for a phone job in a small office (there were only like three employees working when I interviewed.) For the record, I was hired while wearing a hoop nose ring. Hired practically 2 hours after I interviewed. The dress code sent to me is a lot of the usual conservative stuff including no unnatural hair colors, no piercings, no visible tattoos, very specific jewelry standards, jeans must be blue (??). I'm annoyed that a call center job has this specific of a dress code, coming off of another call center job where I could wear whatever the hell I wanted. I'll begrudgingly buy a clear stud for nose piercing today, but should I really even be worried about them enforcing this after a few weeks of kowtowing to that crap?
