Summary:
The claimant voluntarily left his butcher employment on June 28, 2009, without just cause. He could no longer cope, was fed up and more mentally than physically tired, but he did not consult a doctor. He was guaranteed 25 hours a week; but was working 40 hours a week. The claimant stated that he was guaranteed a new job before leaving his first employment, and that he knew that it was a seasonal position and that he would be laid off in the winter. The claimant took a vacation and thus waited 13 weeks before starting to work as a carpenter at the end of September before being laid-off. The claimant was thus somewhat responsible for his own unemployment. The appeal by the Commission is allowed.
