For those of us who have had the pleasure of signing on, we know that when we're rejected for a job, any excuse will do.
Whether it's telling your mum that the interviewer had it in for you because he was jealous of your suit, or telling the people at the Job Centre that seeing a dead cat in the road really threw you for the interview, there must always be an excuse.
Marie Buchan, a woman from Selly Oak in Birmingham who claims benefits, claims she has a plausible reason for not working, because she cannot get a job because she is "too beautiful."
The mother-of-eight dreams of becoming a mechanic, but says that whenever she goes looking for work experience in a garage, men always "looking for something more."
"They'll say things like, 'What do you do when the kids aren't around, would you fancy going for a drink, would there be anything else you'd like to do in the garage other than work on cars?'," she told the Daily Star. "You've got women in the police force, in the army, we have the skills, it's just that men see us as sex symbols."
Marie is actually training to become a qualified mechanic, and is due to finish her diploma in March. She previously appeared onThis Morning, claiming she preferred saving her care worker wages for a boob job than using it for her family, and also complained about cuts to her £31,000 benefits.
"A couple of garages approached me after seeing me on TV but as you talk to them more and more you see what they're after," she told the Daily Star. "They're not really after me working there, they're looking for something more. I think they're just dirty big perverts."
The former lap dancer worked as a carer in the past to help with the £6,000 cut in her benefits, but later realised she was "worse off working." She claims that is too "mentally draining" to be a mum of eight, have a job and study to become a mechanic, so chose to go back on the dole (government assistance).
