Once one person does it then their buddies decide they'll do it too! They even approved one guy who was still out thier working that day!! The state's excuse is that they are backlocked and don't have time to investigate them all....so their just approving EVERY unemployment claim and it's up to the employer to appeal it and MAYBE oneday they'll get around to checking on it...or even READING the reports that say they QUIT. (Which should disqualify them from ANY compensation) This is a big big big problem....
