Fired

To have your employment terminated.

This term originated with National Cash Register in Dayton Ohio. When a manager was let go, they would literally carry his desk into the courtyard between manufacturing buildings and burn the desk in front of the whole company.

Did you hear that Bob was screwing his boss's secretary?

Yeah, they fired his ass and escourted him from the building!
