Description
Memorandum by the Court. Appeal from a decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board, filed July 24, 1968, which determined
that claimant was disqualified from receiving benefits effective December 27, 1967 on the ground that he voluntarily left
his employment without good cause. Claimant, a junior engineer aboard the S. S. Junior, elected to leave the ship at Seattle,
Washington on December 26, 1967 rather than sign on for the return voyage. He stated that he left the ship because he wanted
to secure a better job; that he expected to be "bumped" or laid off because of lack of seniority, and that he felt he was
unqualified for the job by reason of criticism by his superior. He admitted that he was offered an opportunity to sign up
for the return voyage. The Referee found that "claimant elected to leave rather than to continue aboard for various personal
and non-compelling reasons best known and understood to himself", and the board adopted this finding. Substantial evidence
supports this determination, and it may not be disturbed by this court. (Matter of Asaro [ Catherwood ], 32 A.D.2d 699.) The
various reasons advanced by claimant do not constitute good cause for leaving his employment. (Matter of La Greca [ Catherwood
], 30 A.D.2d 597; Matter of Schwalbe [ Catherwood ], 30 A.D.2d 995; Matter of Haynes [ Catherwood ], 30 A.D.2d 722; Matter
of Gilmore [ Catherwood ], 25 A.D.2d 462.) Disposition Decision affirmed, without costs.
