My fingers are crossed for you, Amy.
Man, I just tried to sell someone on my tablet without showing them stuff on my tablet, if you know whaddi mean...I think it worked, but thank damn he didn't want to go into one of the art apps right now.
Right, there comes a point where you have to either move on, or just buy yourself a Klingon costume and go with it.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Because books.
Yeah, I just got laid off, with the provision that I can write for them as much as I want. We'll see how this works out.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Oh, ick, Amy. Fingers crossed that this just means the end of a bad job and the beginning of something good.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
Oh, Amy. I'm sorry. I hope this means that something better is right around the corner for you.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Oh, Amy! Suck. Good luck.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Shit, Amy! Bad ex-bosses, you suck.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Sorry, Amy--but hope it's a first step to a much better job.

I'm sorry Amy. I hope something much, much better comes up.

Because books.
For now, she's claiming I can make the same income working as a contract writer for them. Which seems to contradict the whole "slashing budgets" issue, but whatever.
I'm just confused about whether I file for unemployment or what. I'm assuming not, since I'll be making too much money from writing. (I mean, I hope.) Right?
