Summary:
Claimant lost her employment by refusing to work on a weekend for which she was scheduled to do so. The BOR felt that a refusal to work as sheduled was an act of defiance and can only be characterized as misconduct. Decision upheld by the Umpire: it was necessary for her then to deal with the issue rather than just defy the schedule and not turn up for work.
