I'd modify the 2nd one from "don't do it" to "understand that doing this might burn bridges if they care more about the hierarchy than competence, so have at least one option that doesn't rely on them before you do this". That's with the mindset that I wouldn't want to stay long at a job like that unless this could be resolved and am willing to burn bridges in situations like that.
Oh I concur, but elsewhere OP mentioned that the job pays a rather unskilled (OP mentioned having an A+) 20 year old 55k USD, and OP is getting certs as well. In that case I'd seriously be working on my STFU-skills, instead of meddling in something that my boss really wants me to stop meddling in. Maybe do a bit of CMA - but not to the extent of emailing my boss to get a paper trail.
When you've been in an organization for only three months, and it's your first job in the industry, maybe just absorb what's happening instead of trying to change stuff. Make up your own opinions, sure, but keep them to yourself. Maybe evaluate on how you perceived situations, and how they played out, and modify your views based on that.
