Take time to look over a general release if you’re offered one, and possibly run it by a lawyer. You might be able to negotiate a higher payment.
如果你拿到讓渡書，花時間仔細看看，最好是通過律師處理。這樣你可以拿到更高的報酬。

File for unemployment.
申請失業

在大多數州，如果不是因爲不端行爲被解僱，員工可以領取失業救濟。

到月底你可能還享受公司的醫療服務，所以馬上去看醫生。

告訴你前同事你喜歡和他們一起工作的原因。這樣做能緩解尷尬。他們會對你的高格調印象深刻。

Try to see your firing as an outsider might. Do you understand why you were let go? What lessons can you learn for your next job?

Remember that you’re not alone.
你不是一個人在戰鬥
Lots of good people are fired and move on to success. You’ll get past this too.
