@OP Well, you can also polish your resume and start looking. No one is stopping you. And then when you get massive rejections, you'll realize why you are still working at this company and will appreciate the monthly check that keeps coming to help you pay your bills, put food on the table, and keep your home nice and warm during cold months.
Not many companies are hiring. The job market isn't good. Unemployment numbers are only calculated based on 6 months of you being unemployment and you are no longer counted in the gov't reported unemployment rate starting on month 7 if you still can't find a job. Therefore, the true unemployment rate is much much higher than 4.3% that is being reported by the gov't.
The True Rate of Unemployment Out of the Population is 25%

"The Ludwig Institute for Shared Economic Prosperity (LISEP) True Rate of Unemployment (TRU) measures "functional unemployment" by including part-time workers seeking full-time work and those earning below a living wage ($25,000–$26,000 annually). As of late 2025, the TRU was over 24%, much higher than the BLS official rate of ~4 %"
