Oh, Amy. I'm sorry. I hope this means that something better is right around the corner for you.
Angel: Connor, this is Spike and Illyria. Guys, this is Connor. Connor: Hi. umm...I like your outfit. Illyria: Your body warms. This one is lusting after me. Connor: Oh...no, I--I--it's just that it's the outfit. I guess I've had a thing for older women. Angel: They were supposed to fix that.

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

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?

Amy, better to file and not need it than to count on income you don't get!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I'm sorry, Amy. Good luck!

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Oh, Amy, that sucks balls. I'm sorry.
Also, if NY is like OH for unemployment, go ahead and file. If you don't work in a given week (or work less than whatever your weekly unemployment payment would be), then you receive a payment. If you don't work at all in a given week, you receive the full payment, and if you do work, but less than full time, then the payment is the difference between what you earned and what your unemployment payment would have been. (Like, if you weekly benefit is $400, and you work enough to earn $300, then your payment is $100.)
That's how Ohio does it, so check your state's unemployment website to see how they do it.
