kicking ass

a great career attitude for those with enough nerve to do it

Today at the office I kicked my co-worker's ass for not doing his job right. My boss saw me, but I kicked his ass before he could speak. He was about to fire me, so I kicked his ass some more, and got a promotion instead.

Kicking Ass and Taking Names

The act of being unequivocally awesome. It generally involves showing people what's up, making people feel like morons for being wrong, and defeating terrorists. It is indeed an action worthy of the highest honor.

It refers to an older sayings "Kick ass first, take names later," or "Shoot first, ask questions later." Generally, it is frowned upon enacting such awesomeness without "asking questions" first. However, when used in this context, that much is forgiven.
