[quote=Anonymous]Port your contact list to a personal computer; 
grab a sample of work product that are NOT proprietary to the company or a client -- redact if needed (do not take ANYTHING that isn't yours); 
review your contract or company handbook for information about non-disclosures and non-competes and take care to comply to the extent applicable (if you're not sure, spend an hour with a lawyer to review your rights and responsibilities);
start taking home your personal items ASAP -- you might not get to do it yourself on your last day 9take a photo of everything in your office in case you don't get a chance so you can be clear about what is yours); 
update your resume and get it to a headhunter ASAP, polish up your Linked In profile with words describing your next desired position -- make it a step up -- why not? You don't need to wait to be let go to land your next gig;
review your company policies on severance, pay-out of unused leave, end of benefits, COBRA, etc. -- know what to expect, or at least start a list of practical questions for HR at your exit.[/quote]
