Laid off this week, where do I start? (Buffalo)

I lost my job as a call-centre agent and I am not sure what to do first. There are 16 people counting on me, so I am trying to be careful. I have a few weeks of savings and a rent payment due. Is there a checklist I should follow?

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

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