They called a meeting on Friday and 11 of us were let go. I had been there 11 years. I am in Toledo, in case local advice matters. I have a box of my things and a short letter about benefits. Which steps were urgent?

I made a short list: benefits, bills, documents, and then my résumé. One thing each day kept me steady.

Ask for your final pay, unused leave and any documents in writing before you leave, if you still can.
