The idiom "on the dole" has its origins in British English and dates back to the early 20th century. The word "dole" historically referred to charitable distributions or donations given to the poor. It is used to describe the state of being unemployed and receiving financial assistance from the government or other sources.

What is the origin of the idiom "on the dole" and when to use it?
