My 75 year old mother was admitted into hospital with pneumonia. Because my work in hospitality requires a lot of stranger interactions I elected to go into voluntary 14 day isolation to prevent any possible transference to her or others in the hospital.
I had enough savings to cover myself for the time off (I am a casual) but am now unsure if I will have a job to go back to if my employer decides to close or is forced to shut down for an undetermined length of time.
I will have no source of income as I do not receive centrelink payments and becoming more distressed of that becoming my only possible option.
