Generally, you do not get it if you quit. Otherwise, we don't know what "unfair" means.

There are some circumstances in which if you quit your job that you can receive unemployment. Usually it involves a change in status as to the original work contract or abuse/harassment of a substantial nature that would cause a reasonable person to seek employment elsewhere.

You would likely need to consult with a lawyer who handles this type of claim to see if you might be eligible. However, it will be up to the hearing officer of the Department of Labor that will have a decision as to whether you are entitled to unemployment. Certainly go ahead and apply and if you are denied, consult someone such as myself. www.georgiaunemploymentlawyer.com
