A: Yes, your safety manager can tell you not to ask questions to him in front of a safety inspector. And yes, you can run and tell the manager that the safety manager upbraided you for asking questions in front of an inspector. And yes, the safety manager can come back to you and tell you--again--not to question him ever again in front of an inspector. An finally, if you intentionally allow this silly situation to continue festering, you may lose your job.
