Summary:
The claimant had made a decision not show up for work on April 28, 2004 in support of his fellow employees. The claimant's actions, as well as those of several of his co-workers, were undoubtably due to the difficult relationship between the employer and some of the employees. The Umpire stated that there were other mechanisms the claimant and his co-workers could have used to deal with their problems and concluded that their actions constituted misconduct leading to the termination of their employment.
