    They called a meeting on Tuesday and 17 of us were let go. I had been there 17 years. I am in Memphis, in case local advice matters. I have a box of my things and a short letter about benefits. Is there a checklist I should follow?

    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.
