1Opinion of the Court

NEWMAN, Associate Judge:

Curtis seeks review of the determination of the Department of Employment Services (DES) that he is not entitled to unemployment benefits, a determination based on a finding that he had been fired by his employer for misconduct within the meaning of D.C.Code § 46-lll(b) (1981 & Supp. 1984).

Curtis was employed by the District of Columbia Library for approximately eleven years…
