    I was let go as an insurance claims processor this week and I am still in shock. I have read a lot of threads here and could not find my exact situation. I have not told my family yet. What did you do in the first week?

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

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