Laid off this week, where do I start? after 8 years as a security officer

They called a meeting on Monday and 8 of us were let go. I had been there 8 years. I am in Charlotte, in case local advice matters. I have a box of my things and a short letter about benefits. Which steps were urgent?

Ask for your final pay, unused leave and any documents in writing before you leave, if you still can.
