Summary:
In this case the claimant left his job because he could not afford to fix his vehicle. The claimant did not discuss the situation with the employer nor did he seek alternative ways to travel to his place of employment. The claimant states that he spoke to his supervisor about his transportation difficulties. There was no public transportation going towards the work site. The employer submits that the claimant did not discuss the reason he left his job and did not show up for two weeks. Only through communication with the claimant's friend did the employer find out the claimant did not want to return to work. Thus the employer could not offer to help the claimant if they were unaware of the reason that he quit. The appeal by the claimant is dismissed by the Umpire
