Not all humans.
It was common for college students working in the cafeteria to be given unemployment papers at the end of spring semester. Same for people in limited appointment government positions such as I held on several occasions.
I figured I knew the gig before I signed up for it, and it would be wrong to take “unemployment” money from those who actually lost their jobs.
I have known many people who did not understand that position, it is true, but I have also known many people with more honor who would be ashamed to take any money they did not earn.

People with seasonal jobs are not really unemployed in the traditional sense when the season ends, because they will resume working when the next season starts.

Unemployment benefits was not meant to fill in this gap. This is an area where some money could really be saved if the rules were modified.
