Opinion
September 19, 1951.
Appeal from Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board.
Present — Foster, P.J., Heffernan, Brewster, Bergan and Coon, JJ.
Claimant was a taxicab driver and, together with some others, was employed as an extra man. He worked on a daily "shape-up" basis. Whether he would be given a cab on a particular day was dependent upon how many regular drivers did not report for work and upon the number of extra men who might also be seeking work for that day. He became dissatisfied with that arrangement and asked for a position as a regular driver. This request was refused and thereupon he refused to continue as an extra man. The board has held that claimant did not voluntarily leave his employment without good cause. We cannot say, as a matter of law, that this decision was erroneous. Decision unanimously affirmed, without costs.
