Coronavirus finally affected me

Allie, on March 20, 2020 at 9:01 PM Posted in Community Conversations 0 5
Well, today I went into work to find out I was being furloughed, or laid off temporarily until hopefully this madness ends. I was so upset to find out because while my wedding isn’t until next year, we were trying to get ahead of the game by spacing payments to vendors out and now this is going to severely hurt us financially. I can get unemployment, but it’s just not going to be enough. So I’m feeling really down about wedding stuff like what seems to be a lot of other brides 😞. I’m hoping this all ends for all of us soon so we can enjoy what’s supposed to be a really happy time! My wedding is on hold now until I can find a new job or I get my old job back and I’m just hoping my vendors will work with me to postpone payments.

    I’m sorry Smiley sad I hope everything works out for you - can you claim some benefits or unemployment during this time?

    Yes, I’ll be able to claim unemployment, but it won’t be my full amount of pay of course so it’s going to make things hard. I know it’s just money, but I just hate that we’re all feeling so down and was trying to stay positive and now it got to me too. A lot of figuring out to do.

    I'm so sorry! I know how you feel. I was also laid off this week and I've been so anxious and depressed. Let's pray they get this under control sooner than later!

    Ugh, I’m so sorry for you too, I know exactly how you feel because I literally wake up and just feel hopeless. I’m praying hard for all of us that this is over soon and we can continue with our happy lives!

    Hi Allie! I'm so sorry you're dealing with this. It's such a crazy uncertain and emotional time! Hopefully this will be over soon and life and wedding planning can get back to normal. Smiley heart
