salparadise61325 0 Report post Posted April 6, 2020 Hello I am a 56 year old smoker who wants to be around awhile for my kids. I know - stop smoking. Trying. I work in food retail. If I take an unpaid leave of absence until things cool down, will I qualify for the CERB? I am currently not sick or quarantined - just becoming terribly anxious with the entire work thing.
