I actually had an employee that would write up highly convoluted big reports that I just couldn't understand. he would close them a week later - sometimes with a meaningless patch, sometimes without. couldn't fire him - he was my cofounders toady. the only reason I beat him on 'bugs fixed' is that one of my jobs was to dig through the old issues and remove them if they weren't clear or relevant.
