Sorry to hear that you're having to take some unpaid time off from work, to keep the company within budget.

That does stink. Hopefully, this will be the only time that you are on an unpaid time off.
Very hard times for many people right now. I won't get started in that department, or I'd be boring everyone for
hours!! LOL

Just try to make the best of your time off. It can't hurt to look for other jobs. Maybe you'll find a great one during this time off. Maybe not ~ just take it one day at a time.
