In the United States, to actually receive unemployment one must have a minimum level of wages their base period (roughly the first four of the last five calendar quarters before opening a claim). Otherwise they are not eligible to receive any money. Does Britain have a similar requirement in their system? If so how is Our Hero receiving any dole money?
Until my retirement, except while attending university, I was working from age 18. I even worked during school breaks, too. This doesn’t count the earlier times I made money delivering newspapers and mowing yards.
Hang about – does that work? I demand a raise on my Social Security, Air Force Retirement, NC State Retirement and Minister Funds. “Pretty please with sugar on top”

“… It’s been spent on beer and gambling.” I don’t get this, I thought Andy never pays his gambling debts?

Sounds like Thursday isn’t the optimal day to disburse dole money.

Too bad that Flo can’t arrange for them to send the money directly to her. Then she could hide it in the tool box. Andy never opens that.

Flo, hide your purse and don’t lend/give him any money
