Just got laid off, what should I do first? (Hartford)

They called a meeting on Thursday and 9 of us were let go. I had been there 9 years. Thank you in advance. I have a box of my things and a short letter about benefits. Which steps were urgent?

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

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