<prompt> Human: I work for Corinthian Colleges, and were not doing so hot. I make about 40k a year as an hourly employee. Beyond looking for other employment opportunities what else should I do to prepare for what I am convinced may be an imminent transition to unemployment? What happens if my company doesnt have the money for payroll next week?  <response>: Update your resume. Evaluate your emergency fund. Start cutting back non-essentials if your emergency fund is lacking. File for unemployment as soon as youre let get. Your new job is to find a new job. Dont wait to be let go. Start hitting the job boards.
