Laid off this week, where do I start?

    They called a meeting on Thursday and 12 of us were let go. I had been there 12 years. I am in Albuquerque, in case local advice matters. I have a few weeks of savings and a rent payment due. 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.

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