The phenomenon of when you're about to be fired, but then the employer backtracks and FiHires you. This is a good way to get a $2/hour raise.
Boss: "Hey, if you're going to show up late and them complain about work, we don't need you around here, you're fired."

The boss then sees how much work he'll have to do that was previously assigned to the fired employee.

Boss: "I didn't say you're fired, I said you're FiHired"

Fhired by Lisa Padilla April 3, 2008
Ignoble business practice in which an employee is given the option to choose between being fired or accepting a lower possition with less pay and status. The employee usually takes whatever is offered, since in this day and age the prospect of being left on the streets is frankly terrifying. The term comes from the contraction of fired and hired. Also know as Schrödinger's Contract, since at some point of the process you have a job and lack one at the same exact time.

Word of the Day on October 28, 2026
A lighthearted reaction upon receiving disappointing news of some sort. Usually something that isn't a particularly a big deal, esp. when it primarily affects someone else - sort of a mild schadenfreude. Sometimes doubled or tripled, and possibly said in a sing-songy voice for added comedic effect to imitate a muted trumpet, which is how the meme originated.
