Do your ever fight with your boss when you think he/she is doing something wrong? I have got a colleague that will fight back whenever she think that she is right. She doesn't care whether she will get fired or not as long as she think that she is right. So, do you fight with your boss? or did you argue with your boss?

Not at all. I don't even like to point it out, on the rare occasion that my boss does something wrong. Because I don't want her to feel like I'm pointing the finger, especially from being positioned "under" her, job-wise. The truth is, both me and my boss make the occasional mistake. I have actually been with the company longer than Pat, my boss, which is peculiar, because she is a manager and I am not. Hmm. But no, we never do fight. Thank god!

Yeah, it is better not to fight with your boss, who know what kind of person he is, may be one day he will do something and affect your job...

yspmyl he who fights with his boss may be standing in the unemployment insurance line next.No i never fought with my boss as she was bi polar and refused to take her medication so one day she is way up and one day she is way way down.on either day it would be foolish to argue with her as I was just working part time and really needed the job too. I have at times told her she had something wrong but it was done gently and not in a combative mood at all.

Hi Hatley, We here have labor law that can protect the employee being fired without any strong reason. The company will need to compensate the employee for certain amount of money if they are being fired without any reason. But yes, as the truth is unless one did not want to work with the company anymore will have the guts to fight against the boss or else just to shut up and keep quiet. Whoever that fight with the boss will definitely make themselves suffer, unless the boss is really nice..but how many bosses are nice?

She is a brave girl. In generally, I don't argue with my boss, but if he does something wrong, and the wrong thing is affect me, I will do the same thing with your friend.

I think to argue with your own boss must have a lot of guts and you do not depend on the job to survive..:) Or you have already got another vacancy waiting for you in others company...
