What should I do when I get laid off
jamesshamenski: 1. notify all of your clients and contacts on your last day. this network is your best shot at landing a new gig. "its all who you know" - mantra.2. be humble and thank the company for the opportunity. be shockingly nice and helpful. they wont forget that. This is how kevin ollie rode the bench in the NBA for 14 years with 14 teams --> everyone loved the guy because he had an awesome attitude.3. Do that 'crazy idea' you had that the mgmt told you would never work. It's a great time to try a new sales strategy that you couldnt get approved before and see if it really would have worked.4. Sleep with the bosses daughter.
