    They called a meeting on Friday and 16 of us were let go. I had been there 16 years. I would rather hear the honest version than the polite one. I have not told my family yet. Which steps were urgent?

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

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