Summary:
Machinist on lock-out who worked 5 weeks elsewhere as courier and left for just cause. Not a subterfuge although short term. Regularity of schedule is criterion that tips balance in his favour, as in ABRAHAMS.

Summary:
Courier paid by delivery; salary fell suddenly from $225 to $131 per week. Unjustified refusal by employer to allow invoices to be checked exceeds simple management right, distorted employer-employee relationship and destroyed climate of trust.
