    They called a meeting on Monday and 7 of us were let go. I had been there 7 years. There are 7 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have not told my family yet. What did you do in the first week?

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

    Give yourself the first couple of days to be upset. I did, and then I felt able to plan.
