Do you think it is the Employer's right to set the parameters of a job...outline the duties and his/her expectations...or do you think the employee has the right to try to change the job to suit his/her desires? Does Boss rule or does Employee rule?

In my world things need to be exact. Catering needs to be run with almost military precision. Everyone has a job and everyone knows every job. Lets say someone changes a recipe to suit their taste, I would not put up with that. If someone has found a way to cut time and still do a superior job, I'm open for suggestions.

Legally, the employer sets the policies and standards of the workplace, and is required to meet fair labor practices in hiring and promoting personnel. The employee cannot alter policy and procedures on a whim and expect to be retained and compensated, when he/she has failed to meet the job requirements for which they were hired. (imho) +5 :-)

It depends on who has the power. Sometimes it is the employer. Or sometimes the employees unionize and increase their power. Who has the power depends on who wants it most and is willing to fight for it.

To a point but some go to far.

I think both are true. The Employer certainly has the right to set job parameters, since he or she is paying the salary. However, the Employee has the right to negotiate those parameters. If it's not too disruptive, sometimes it's in the Employer's best interest to let an employee be creative. If an employee is happy, he or she is more likely to stay. Retraining a new person after the employee left would be much more expensive and frustrating.
