Well, if you worked at a job you viewed as easily replaceable, maybe not. You might think 'I'll ride out the 13 weeks and if Chipotle won't take me back, I'll go to Cheesecake Factory' or something like that.

@jon-nyc Yes, you might. And that would be stupid.

You're not supposed to be able to get it if you quit. In normal times, the employer (me) would get a letter from unemployment stating I had an employee filing for unemployment. If contesting the filing, I could respond saying he was Terminated for X Reason (employee almost automatically wins those around here), or he quit on his own (the employer can often 'win' these cases)
My guess is my employee probably lied on the form, and the states system--overwhelmed with filers, isn't in all cases doing their normal diligence in determining whether someone qualifies.
In my particular case---I don't care about losing an easily replaceable employee. But it sure would piss me off to see the premiums I pay go up because of a fraudulent filing.
But then--how much time do I have to pursue this? Not much. I'm busy trying to get some shop work done, and handle the moves that do come in.
The cases of the restaurant workers are a little less blatant than what's happened with my worker...But it's still gaming the system, and it wouldn't surprise me to see it happening on a pretty large scale in certain industries.
