How To Survive Being Laid Off For 2 Months

I work at a hotel, and my employer had to send me home for the next two months without pay, how do I survive this?

I’m so sorry that this is happening to you and thousands of employees right now. Here’s my advice:

• Pray – It’s the best antidote to worry, and God recommends it. 

• Prioritize – Look at all of your expenses and determine what you can do without for the next 60 days. Make it a fun challenge to try not to spend any money unless absolutely necessary. 

• Part-time work – A number of industries are overwhelmed and many have an exhausted workforce right now. See if they need your help. 

• Be Patient – God is faithful to provide, so wait on Him during your trial.
