0002 1180 82 (Feb. 18, 2004) - By waiting until the claimant’s fifth attendance violation following a final warning, which had provided that any further disciplinary problems will result in termination, the employer led the claimant to believe that his behavior was condoned.  The claimant lacked the requisite state of mind to be disqualified under G.L. c. 151A, § 25(e)(2).
