Layoff happened 11 days ago, feeling lost - what worked for you?

They called a meeting on Monday and 11 of us were let go. I had been there 11 years. This is my first time dealing with any of this. 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.

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