[quote=Anonymous]Question: Is the OP had not referenced the fact that her boss is a political appointee, and told the exact same story referencing "her boss", or if the same scenario played out in the private or nonprofit sector, would the reaction of many of these posters have been the same? I doubt it. Every day everywhere people are told to do things in the workplace that they personally do not want to do, or think is not the right decision or direction. Ninety percent of the time, we all collectively agree that it is part of employment, and it sucks, but we just do it. I work in an agency that is VERY MUCH affected by political changes in leadership. I understand my role as a high level civil servant is to bring my expertise to the table, to give my best advice, and then to execute on the decision that is eventually made. Sure, there is a line somewhere, and that line is illegality. Mere disagreement is something to take in stride...[/quote]
