Ozman
To have been given the ass, Aussie slang for getting the sack – being fired.
- Example: Guy 1: Word from front office is you're hanging on to your job by a pubic hair, better shape up. Guy 2: Shut up, i've just got the ass this morning.
Cargill
To be fired, dropped from a football team, kicked off social media, thrown out of the house by the wife … and so on. And it is never “ass” – it is always “arse”.
- Example: I got pissed again and the girlfriend gave me the arse.
