        I wonder if you are working where I am now. They LOVE sacking people. Might be handy in certain areas - but in IT its very counter productive.

          No one on here as ever been 'sacked' from a contract. Maybe it is because you don't understand contracts you got 'sacked'?

            Well it's a slightly nicer way of saying 'Feck off you useless tosser and don't let the door hit you in the arse on your way out.'

                  Either that or he means this from Urban Dictionary.... in which case I do feel some sympathy..

                  Sacked 25 up, 21 down

                  To place your balls on someones upper body (preferably their shoulder) or you rub someones item on your balls and give it back to them (preferably their gum) and say "You got sacked!"

                      Only happened to me once when the permie PM got sacked and a day later all the contractors he had hired had their contracts terminated. We all met up that Friday and partied, six months later that company folded.
