I don't need or want your ideas. You just walked in the door. You do it my way or it's the highway. Now after you put in your time and know the job, lets talk about how to improve the process. I have a process in play. I don't want to have to bail you out of a mess with a process I have never used. When you are in trouble, if you follow the process I laid out, it is easier for me to recover the mistake. Like I said, when you are more familiar, your opinion is now carrying weight.

Bull****. The first few months of employment are often the most valuable to employers because of fresh, different ideas free of the day to day "in the weeds" stuff. If you hire someone who doesn't give a different perspective on your business you aren't doing things right. Doesn't mean your hire is inexperienced at all, or won't have a transition period, but if you are of the "my way or the highway" mindset you're putting yourself at a disadvantage.
