Laid off this week, where do I start? - 6 weeks in

I was let go as a hotel front-desk agent this week and I am still in shock. I worked as a hotel front-desk agent before this. I have not told my family yet.

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.
