In the Matter of the Claim of SHIRLEY A. MURRAY, Appellant. JOHN E. SWEENEY, as Commissioner of Labor, Respondent.

Claimant was employed as a retail sales clerk until she resigned after approximately seven days on the job. In her subsequent application for unemployment insurance benefits, claimant stated that she had left her employment because of the insufficiency of her training and the lack of communication with her supervisor together with the unfriendly atmosphere that prevailed in the workplace. The Unemployment Insurance Appeal Board ruled that claimant's reasons for resigning were personal and noncompelling in nature, thereby disqualifying her from receiving benefits. We affirm. An employee's dissatisfaction with a supervisor or with the general working conditions of his or her employment has been found not to constitute good cause for resigning ( see, Matter of Trainor [Sweeney], 226 A.D.2d 871). Claimant's later contention that she did not quit but was fired raised an issue of credibility for resolution by the Board ( see, Matter of Bradley [Hudacs], 190 A.D.2d 949, 950).

Cardona, P.J., Mikoll, Crew III, White and Yesawich Jr., JJ., concur.

Ordered that the decision is affirmed, without costs.
