Good grief everyone... is it allowable for individuals to have an independent brain? Does everyone have to be part of a hive? If the damn guy is a Packers fan, or wants to wear one to honor his grandmother, for God's sakes what the hell is wrong with that? The only way the "boss" gets away with this is if it is against the Employee Dress Code. I'm sure their HR "department" would have a field day trying to tapdance around it.

Directions on how to perform your job is certainly within the boss' right to demand. I'm not so crazy on any other guidance. If he tells you to go buy him coffee & donuts, and you refuse, are you ok being fired as well? Where is the line?
