consequences of losing job while in Ch13

I just started a 5 year repayment plan under chpt13 and am wondering what the consequences would be under the following situations: 1. I lam fired or laid off from my job 2. I voluntarily quit and take a lower paying job and cannot afford the full monthly payment to the trustee under the plan. 3. I voluntarily quit to become a full-time grad student and receive an aid package and stipend through the university. Thanks!
