Opinion by
Judge Craig,
Sara M. Kowal, a program monitor for .the Susquehanna Employment and Training Corporation (.SET-OO) who, at a meeting in September of 1981, threw a writing tablet at her supervisor and told him, “I hate working here. Shove it up your ass, ’ ’ appeals from an Unemployment Compensation Board of Review order which affirmed a referee’s denial of benefits on the ground of willful misconduct.
We must decide if the board failed ,to consider the issue of justifiable provocation, and if so, whether this case should be remanded for additional findings of fact.
