It would never happen, and you know it. I collected unemployment for a short time and was not obligated to accept a job at any number of unpleasant places, even though I would have technically been qualified. In Texas, you have to actively interview and be offered a job before you are considered to have "turned down" the gainful employment. Disability benefits are a little more stringent, but prostitution is by definition a physical job, it would never make the cut on the occupational therapists' lists.
