I would clearly say him that I was not fine with his idea when I have already known his idea's impact would be unfair and I would ask him what if something goes wrong when his idea is being implemented.

As he is my boss and also senior he must have more knowledge than me and though if he will be crazy about a thing I will try prove what is the right and false carefully.

As I am a fresher, my way of thinking may clash with his, I try to suggest any better alternatives or improvements in a subtle way.

I would fully support him, as my boss is greater to me in experience and knowledge I would respect his views and support him in reaching his goals.
Well if I think his idea stinks then I would provide constructive feedback to him about improving his idea.

No idea is bad. If boss thinks it's crazy and wants to do it then so be it however I'll give him my perception of stinker thought ina very polite manner and probably make him to rethink his idea.

As the rule says the boss is always right I will follow that rule because he or she is having lots of knowledge and experience and if they ask my viewpoint that I will suggest my viewpoint and leave the decision on his hand.

I think I don't have much knowledge and experience at this stage of the job so I would like to give the best advice if I can but if I won't have then I'll leave it to him because he/she must be more experienced than me.

I will give my opinion and if he agrees then it's good and if doesn't we go by his decision. Because experience has its say.
