GET THE AXE
If someone gets the axe, they lose their job.
When a company is restructured, the senior staff are often the first to get the axe.
GET THE AXE : Ser despedido
Ejemplos:
¿ Por que la despidieron? Por robarse dinero de la compañia ( "Why did they give her the axe?" "For stealing company money.")
¿ Que les pasó a John y Steve? Se rumora que fueron despedidos ("What happened to John and Steve? Rumor is they got the axe")
Ejemplos adicionales:
I can’t believe it. I got the axe at work today.
Senior staff are more likely to get the axe because the company can't afford their high salaries
