Most of the conflicts I have had in my career were due to this misunderstanding. Someone in a manager position telling me to sweep the floor in a certain way and me telling them that it doesn't make any sense to even sweep that floor since we are getting new hardwoods installed tomorrow. From their perspective I'm supposed to do what they said exactly as they said it, and from my perspective they are clearly not qualified to be making decisions on how the floor should be swept.
