Just got laid off, what should I do first? - 3 months and counting

I was let go as a bank teller this week and I am still in shock. I have a box of my things and a short letter about benefits. What did you do in the first week?

Keep everything in writing and save the confirmation numbers. It made the follow-up calls so much easier.

File for unemployment right away. Do not wait for severance decisions. The date you file can matter.
