I just got laid off

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
resumedit: resume

draft-level so far. tear the sucker apart.

If you would like my unaltered resume let me know and I can provide you with a link.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I didn't have much to say, and am still perplexed about today's happenings. While I could sulk in the fact that I gave my all to a company that just happened yo lay me off today, my birthday, that is for another time, and another place.

What I need now is ADVICE so I can take care of what really matters later:

Important details:

  • -I was laid off due to outsourcing and the break was quick and clean but not out of malice. The company and I have a good standing and they have assured me that I will have no problem receiving recommendation letters etc.

    -I am canceling every service I have immediately (except mobile phone + data) and am paying what bills are pending.

    -I have not notified CC's about this just yet and would like to know how to proceed on that front

    -I need to know if I should peruse unemployment immediately (never done that before). I was laid off and was in good standing and need to know how this works.

    -I will put netflix on the 90 day hiatus that they offer

    - I will go for a nice long run to clear my head

    Due to school debt I have no investments at this time

Any advice is appreciated. I will provide my resume later.



Today is my birthday so I will attempt to make the best of this afternoon by celebrating that which I have not lost today: friends and family.

I can't tell if waggy is making fun of the OP's text or not.

Edit: And to the OP, sorry to hear that.
 
Couldn't this have served as an update to your thread? At least people would stop hounding you about it.

Also, bummer, sorry to hear that.
