1) are your goals aligned with the ultimate success factors of the company?
Probably.
2) are the people who want to stop you from doing your job aligned?
Probably not.
Ask yourself if people who "just want a minute" would go stick their arm in an industrial metal press, willingly. Don't they want to make a good impression? Or would this be a horrible act of self harm that is completely disruptive?
