No. Insubordination is blatant disrespect for the rules. The person responsible for assuring rules are followed is there to listen to anything you have to say. Express your concerns. But do so respectfully.

Insubordination is the refusal to perform a work-related assignment given by your boss. If your boss tells you to work on production line A, but you refuse because you want to work next to your friend on production line B (don't laugh, I've had it happen) - that's insubordination. There is no ethical, safety, or other prohibitive reason for the refusal.

Telling your boss something they don't want to hear can be done in such a way that it doesn't constitute insubordination. The bottom line, however, is that they are the boss and you aren't, so if they tell you to do something that is within the purview of your job (even if it's a stupid thing to do), it is their directive that must be followed.

I was the top salesmen for a very large company. My boss felt threatened that I was going to take her job and she got me fired for "being disrespectful" once I was gone, they lost 100,000 a month in sales and had to layoff 13 employees. She was the first to go. Karma is a real ***** sometimes.

Yes. When the boss man is wrong and you stick up for yourself, you are insubordinate. sucks but its the truth
