| has gloss | eng: Pink slip refers to the American practice, by a personnel department, of including a discharge notice in an employee's pay envelope to notify the worker of his or her termination of employment or layoff. Receiving a "pink slip" has become a metaphor for the termination of employment in general. According to an article in The New York Times, the editors of the Random House Dictionary have dated the term to at least as early as 1910. In the UK and Ireland the equivalent of a pink slip is a P45, in Belgium the equivalent is known as a C4. |

| has gloss | deu: Blauer Brief ist die umgangssprachliche Bezeichnung für eine Benachrichtigung, mit der die Schule den Eltern eines Schülers (oder dem Schüler selbst, wenn dieser volljährig ist) mitteilt, dass die Versetzung gefährdet ist. Auch Kündigungsschreiben werden oft als Blauer Brief bezeichnet. Die Bezeichnung stammt aus dem 18. Jahrhundert, als königliche Anordnungen häufig blickdicht verpackt und gesiegelt werden mussten. Dafür eignete sich Papier, das aus Lumpen hergestellt wurde, oft von Uniformen, die in dieser Zeit preußisch Blau waren, besonders gut. |
