    Unemployment is for people who are willing to work but have yet to find a new job. Turning down a job disqualifies one for unemployment.

      They haven’t turned down a job, they’re in contract negotiations for a job they want to work.

      You can turn down positions that are not a side grade or better of your current position and still collect unemployment.

      I can always work at McDonald’s, but if I get laid off I’m not going to go work at McDonald’s.
