I’m sorry you’re going through this after finally getting your first job. You must feel everything has moved backwards, but you did improve and get the job.

It is possible the shop will keep you because you did receive compliments and you might cost them less than others. Another possibility is the manager may want to hire you back at a later time when they start selling again. I don't know. The future is not easy to predict.

If you do end up with a gap in your curriculum, you can explain it as a result of the virus. I feel many people are going to have gaps from this and employers will understand it.

During this time, I feel like we aren't reliving past anxieties. This is completely new. We are going forward through new anxieties and have to find our way through this unknown time.

I hope you keep your job and get to England as you planned.
