  小贴士
  pink slip
  公司裁员的时候,如果谁收到了pink slip(字面意思是:粉红色的纸条),那他最好赶快收拾东西,另谋出路。pink slip就是“解雇通知书”的意思。pink slip最早出现于20世纪初,指的是“员工周薪信封里夹着的粉红色小纸条”,收到 pink slip 的员工随即将被解聘。那么解雇通知书为什么要用粉红色呢?有解释说,粉红色相对而言比较柔和,似乎可以慰藉被裁员工的“受伤心灵”。与fire(开除)有所不同,收到pink slip往往是由于公司财务不佳,不得不裁员。而fire多半是由于员工不称职或犯了错而被“炒鱿鱼”。和解雇有关的地道短语有sack somebody(解雇某人)和to get the sack(被解雇)。另外,介乎pink slip和fire之间的是lay off(暂停雇用)。我们在日常生活中,i am pink slipped.(我被公司裁掉了)这句话还是不说为妙,我们宁可告诉别人:i dismiss my boss.(我炒了老板鱿鱼。) ↑返回顶部↑
