So basically the employee was much more interested in covering their own 'image' instead of solving the problem?
This sounds just like what the UPS guy who started the right turn strategy talked about at a seminar a week ago at my school. He said the biggest obstacle was idiot middle managers who would order their drivers to do three right turns to eliminate a left turn and they would come up to him all proud at the end of the month showing that they eliminated every single left turn!!! He promptly fired those idiots on the spot.
