Summary:
The claimant left her employment one week after a new manager was hired because of disagreements concerning her work. “The Board finds that he Claimant had over the past year worked with three managers, the first two of which were pleasant to work with and had entrusted her with responsibilities. The new manager, in his first position as manager and being young, likely felt that he had to be tough with employees and did not have the communication skills that the previous managers had. The Claimant took offense at the new manager’s remarks about how she was recording her time and that as a reaction she walked off the job. The Board finds that the Claimant although in her mind she had good cause for leaving, it does not amount to just cause. The appeal before the Umpire is dismissed.
