In my view, it is fine to argue with our bosses as long as it was done professionally. It is also like accepting constructive criticisms. But then, some bosses would not admit that they are at fault sometimes. The course of action is to explain your side and stop arguing. Why? There is nothing going to happen if we continue defending your point to him or her.

Arguing with your boss is bad, but I feel that are some better ways you should be able to express your ideas or feels to your boss. You can going about explaining things in a polite manner that will be acceptable

If I disagree with my boss, I would not argue with him/her. Instead, I would express my opinion in a polite manner. A good boss should be wiling to listen to different opinions.

Yup if the boss is good he would agree or disagree with your ideas I mean that's how it should work if the boss is that rude than it's very bad

There are some times you need to correct your boss if you know things are going in the wrong direction and you have the perfect solution or a suggestion that can make things better. You just have to do it politely

Omo!. This question is funny. What, argue with your boss?!. How dare you. A boss is incorrigible that must never been seen as faulty. Even where they are faulty, you must be ready to accept the fault and apologize to him even when your conscience is judging you faultless.
After accepting the fault, the God fearing among them may later reflected and apologize to you back. But where you argue with him, you might be sanctioned.

Arguing with your boss is something I would definitely not recommend as it will more than likely lead to you losing your job and also getting a bad reference from your previous employer which could result in you losing work in the future.

Things such as constructive criticism and also healthy debates and sharing your opinion would be fine but an argument that could turn nasty is never something that should happen.

If I'm your boss and it's very clear to me that you get high from arguing with me and not your fellow staff, it shows that you have no regard for authority. I'm sacking you immediately.

If you have good arguments it is. Also your boss should know how take critics from workers. Few times I argue with my boss about latest project but I had good reasons.

Don't argue with your boss you'll be bad on his sight and feeling. I never argued with my superiors. They're following the rules and policies. They're put on that position because they're qualified , skilled expert.

I had arguments with my boss about project related to Norway. I think her arguments are bad and insulting. We will have another argument since in less than two months I will leave one part of my position at work.

It is something most people don't understand because it is not your place to argue with your boss but you can actually just make a suggestion and leave it like that.

Exactly, those who argue with their boss have strong intestines, good if the boss is open minded for he or she could understand but if not the arguer will be put under boiling water.

it is to first know the kind of boss you have . Forget about to hose with huge ego because you might not be making sense to them. Don't argue with them

We cannit beat our bosses, they are put up there because of their qualifications, and those who argue will never feel at ease. He or she might be ridiculed or bullied. Sooner or later that arguer may resign, so better keep the mouth shut.
