Use your head. They need a lot of no-fly lines just to get up to 74 hrs ALV. That means a metric sh!t ton of cuts are on the way. If you can supplement your 74 hr line with picked up flying, go for it. If you're looking for group permission, I guess you have it. It's not as though we have guys on the street. Yet.
I pity your situation though, if your circumstances are such that you're already panicking about your income. If the last few weeks haven't been a wake-up call to consolidate your financial position and cut your budget then I'm not sure what else would do the trick.
