Happy Labor Day!

#happylaborday I believe "The Last Days of Disco" is one of the few motion pictures to have a scene where a character signs up for unemployment. I know in Peter Jackson's "King Kong" they go the bread lines. "Tootsie" also deals with unemployment. Let me know if you can think of any other films where the character specifically signs up for unemployment.
