Farmergirl: This sounds manipulative to me....Maybe I just don't know enought about the situation, but in my perception, it sounds almost passive-agressive to threaten termination for your 'non-compliance'. Maybe more time could be spent figuring out why you "choose not to do what he says"? What are your unconscious motivations? What's stopping you? Is it some sort of self-sabatoge? etc.
