The better you're out and autonomous the better K. I have a long way to go for that though, but I hope you can escape soon. Relying on others sucks.
Businesses are out there doing what they have to to stay afloat, I understand...But there's others that have not been affected so much using the COVID excuse to dick employees also. Here at least anyway. As a former business-owner (property industry) I understand that hard decisions need to be made at times. My wife had to make them in her business she runs now for us. But if they are avoidable then don't make them...Many here are doing things they do not need to giving them the chance to increase profit but paying less and dropping staff.
