I know if I refused to do my work or even hinted I wouldn't do it...no matter if the boss destroyed it... Id be fired faster than those police lighting up a suspects vehicle with bullet holes.

Why are these comments saying that not doing a small part of a job that your boss doesn't want you to do is means for dismissal?

If something you are doing is being thrown away, you should change focus (like pulling back on quality of life arrests, and focus on real crimes).

If your boss is destroying all your work, you're going to get fired for not producing anything. I'd recommend you figure out what your boss cares about.
