Job loss / being fired.

Ted: "Well, after he proposed a vocational paradigm shift, I made an impromptu presentation using a four-pronged approach that really brought him to his knees."
Barney: "You hit him with a chair?"
Ted: "Yep."
When you and a friend or possibly many friends spend a large amount of time together, preferably over 3 hours, it is called a shift, but only when you have had an immense time. The acknowledgment of the sift is usually acknowledged by saying “Yes Sir that was a stunning shift”
Sam: Liam, these past few hours have been a stunning shift.
Liam: yes sir it certainly has been

Ctrl+Shift+Esc is an alternative key command to Ctrl+Alt+Del, for systems with Windows Vista or higher/newer installed. It may also be available in older versions of Windows, depending on system configurations (i.e. multiple user accounts are registered to the system/computer). Pressing Ctrl+Alt+Del will typically bring up the Windows Security screen. From there the Task Manager is accessible, among other options (log off, change password, shut down, etc.). In contrast, pressing Ctrl+Shift+Esc will launch the Task Manager directly, skipping the step of navigating the Windows Security screen. Both are equally effective. It is up to the individual user to determine which is most convenient.
In campus library:
Student: "WTF! My laptop froze AGAIN!! I'm never gonna get this assignment done..." -reaches to hold power button down-
Student's friend: "Whoa, wait a sec! Try hitting control, shift, escape. It might be not be Office that's crashing. Save yourself some hassle."
Person across table: -looks over at the two, confused- "Don't you mean control, alt, delete?"
Student's friend: "Same idea, but this is a little quicker."
Person across table: "Oh. I hadn't heard of that. Never mind, then." -shrugs and returns to reading-
Student's friend: -presses ctrl-shift-esc, then navigates Task Manager to look for unresponsive program(s) to close- "See, it was the media player you had going. You would've lost a whole page if you just shut it off like that."
Student: "That's awesome! Thank you!"

A keyboard shortcut built into the Google Chrome browser (and some others) which, when invoked, closes all tabs in the focused window. Used to instantly erase visual evidence of objectionable activity.
I was browsing the Web for adult material when my mother walked into my room. Luckily I used ctrl+shift+w to close the incognito window I was using and she didn't suspect a thing.

When FireFighters on C-Shift get an unremarkable amount of calls and neglect station duties, wake up late, put equipment out of service that was functioning properly, and complain that the other shifts do not get anything accomplished. But in reality only 3 calls were ran and one call was on the 2nd day of the 48 hour shift.
Shift A,B: how was your guys tour?
Shift C: We got slammed.
Shift A,B: How many calls did you get?
Shift C: We got slammed capt, we got slammed, we ran 3 calls, we got slammed
Shift A to shift B: That's a C-Shift Slam, running no calls and complaining that got slammed with a mad amount of calls
