Lauren...I don't think it would. All they would see was that she quit
after being given a promotion.
Now, what WOULD work are things like an enforced shift change that
interferes with family, a company relocation that became too far to
commute, etc.
I've also seen instances in borderline cases where they granted UI,
but included a 2 or 3 week delay above the normal period of time.
