In the Matter of the Claim of TUDOR DRAGOI, Appellant. COMMISSIONER OF LABOR, Respondent.

MEMORANDUM AND ORDER

Substantial evidence supports the decision of the Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board that claimant voluntarily left his employment without good cause. Claimant left his employment as a delivery driver for a jewelry store after additional customers were added to his route and his request for a raise was denied. It is well settled that dissatisfaction with one's work assignment and wages does not constitute good cause for leaving employment (see, Matter of Pietropaolo [Commissioner of Labor], 271 A.D.2d 795; Matter of Sibertzeff [Commissioner of Labor], 264 A.D.2d 936). Although claimant maintains that he was fired, the employer's testimony to the contrary presented a credibility issue for the Board to resolve (see, Matter of Parisi [Commissioner of Labor], 284 A.D.2d 881). Claimant's remaining contentions have been reviewed and found to be without merit.

Mercure, J.P., Crew III, Spain, Mugglin and Lahtinen, JJ., concur.

ORDERED that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
