[QUOTE="ok2bclever, post: 58355"] It has always been my understanding that the [b]only[/b] reason you can disregard a direct order is if it would threaten yours or someone else's direct safety and I am not talking theoretically or possibly some time in the future. Having a fellow employee agree with you won't do you squat if you try to [i]stretch[/i] this definition. I have never heard that if you decide it would violate your ethics you could refuse. I personally wouldn't refuse a direct order for anything except the safety issue if you are out on a limb. Use the grievance procedure and the company's ethics and trouble lines for all else, but disregard a direct order, even a stupid or what you would consider a dispicable one at the risk of your permanent job loss.
