MEMORANDUM OPINION^_

_ Pursuant to Code § 17-116.010 this opinion is not designated for publication.

JUDGE BERNARD G. BARROW.

This appeal is from a Workers' Compensation Commission decision that the employee's injury arose out of her employment. Credible evidence that (1) a black heel mark about ten to twelve inches long remained on the floor after the employee slipped, (2) the floor "seemed to be extremely slippery" to the employee, and (3) students sometimes sprayed oil sheen hairspray on the floor in the area where the employee fell, support the commission's finding that "something on the surface of the floor" caused her to slip. For this reason, we affirm the commission's decision.See Code § 65.2-706; Goodyear Tire Rubber Co. v. Watson, 219 Va. 830, 833, 252 S.E.2d 310, 312 (1979); Jules Hairstylists, Inc. v. Galanes, 1 Va. App. 64, 68, 334 S.E.2d 592, 595 (1985).

Affirmed.
