Lemme just throw this out to as many who want to answer ...
It is hypothetical ... I am not claiming that any numbers I am about to use are for illustration only.
IF you had a job. And it paid $50k per year, and included a nice house to live in, and all utilities for that home. And
IF your boss told you to chop a week early ...
Would you tell him to fack off and not do it?
Would you quit? Or force him to fire you?
Here's another hypothetical situation:
IF you hired a lawyer to defend you on a criminal charge.
And he came to you with a plea bargain.
And you said, "Hell no, I'm innocent."
And he went to the DA and told her that you accepted the offer.
Would you fire him for not doing the job you hired him to do?
Now, there is two situations. One in which you are the employee.
The other the employer.
How would you handle those two situations?
I wouldn't work for Mc Donalds in the first place...but if the job paid well enough sure I would keep it
until I found a better job where my skills and knowledgeable opinion were appreciated. I stopped doing corporate bullshit work years ago. Until recently that meant I wasn't making much money(a choice), but my integrity and skills were worth more then I was getting paid. I turned down a salary management position because they only wanted to pay me about 50k, but I had to work 55+ hours a week, no thanks I love my family.
Now I work for a company that appreciates my skills, opinions, ideas and also compensates me well. It's definitely the best job I've ever had, I had to work and sacrifice to get here, and I had to really dig around/wait for the right opportunity.
The second scenario is irrelevant. I really can't picture a lawyer doing that since they get paid to do what you want..... Is the lawyer also going to falsify the paperwork for the plea bargain, and forge your signature?
I worked in management for years. Obviously employees need to follow instruction, however, I wouldn't be a very good manager if I ignored beneficial advice no matter who shared it with me. It's common for employees to see things that perhaps we can't while in a management position.
