- concluding that no reasonable jury could find that an employee's discharge was \arbitrary\ or unjustified where he sought to violate company policy
- stating that G & M is governing precedent and has yet to be disapproved
- “ ‘[I]f the reason given by the employer is the real reason for its action,’ it does not matter if ‘the employer’s action was arbitrary or unwise.’ ”
