Summary:
There is, however, evidence that he did try and find employment from 16-9. This, of course, is evidence after the fact of his quitting. The jurisprudence shows that attempts should be made to find a position before one quits a job.

Summary:
The commencement date of that other job was uncertain and did not commence until 3 weeks after. The Board found that he quit without just cause. The effect of the Board's conclusion is that he ought to have remained at his job until he was ready to commence at the other one. I accept that logic.

Claimant must show that he found another employment before leaving or, at least, that he had very strong probability of finding employment in very near or immediate future. One month and a half is too long.

Summary:
The fact that he found this job very quickly indicates he was not merely willing to be idle and subsist on UI but he may have been hasty in abandoning it. His justification for doing this so quickly is not just cause but disqualification reduced to 2 weeks.
