I swore a lot. Then I hit something. Then I swore a lot more. Then I got the job papers. Funnily enough, at no stage did I invite jokes.

I've only had the misfortune once... in was actually in November too (few years back). First thing I did was file for unemployment benefits... then update my resume. :)

First thing? Laughed in my soon-to-be-ex boss's face until he was good and furious. Once I left the building I started swearing in a language last spoken by some nameless teutonic demigod as eldrich fire burst from my head, chasing away tourists (I work in Times Square) as the overwhelming smell of sulphur descended upon Broadway and 50th street. (Or maybe I just drank a whole lot of bourbon and read a bunch of crappy Forgotten Realms novels.) EDIT: This was last Thursday. I'm in Lame Duck land 'til next Friday. *twitch*

You're a tough one, I had to get a thread going based on our interaction earlier

I never got laid off (working my first job for 7 + months), but if i know myself i'll probably watch Family Guy(or something similar) all night long (probably the day after). After that one good sleep and then look for a new job :)
Whatever you watch update your resume at the same time and apply like hell

Considering I lost my house over it, I know how bad it feels.

Which time? 1984, 1994, 2002, or 2009? :^) It gets easier with repetition. Update resume and online sites. Apply for unemployment (if applicable). Consider relocating (not to your mother's basement). Learn some new technology.
