to crucify 

verb : (to)

to lay off your workers, for no specific reason other than the fact that you decide to move your company overseas.

N.B: not to be confused with either the crucifixion, a method of capital punishment in the Roman Empire, or The Crucifixion -of Jesus-but this is just as painful in the modern capitalist world.
Emily (adressing her boyfriend): Carl, remember I told you my boss was thinking about firing me? Well now he finally succeeded. I finally learned the reason; it's not just me he is firing, it's everyone. He's going to crucify the entire staff.

Carl: Oh, the bastard. If he is going to crucify all his staff like that, and other companies follow suit, guess what?, the laid off workers around The United States might start an American Communist Revolution.

to crucify 

to lay off your workers, for no specific reason other than the fact that you decide to move your company overseas, even in times of economic prosperity.
Emily (adressing her boyfriend): Carl, remember I told you my boss was going to crucify me? Well now he finally succeeded. My company is moving overseas. I think we will have to move into the basement of your dad's country place, we can't afford the rent here in the city.

Carl: Listen sweetie, Emily. I am a Martian, and therefore have a solution for you. I was going to pimp you out to my company's secretary and and her rich bastard husband as a cleaning lady, a Cinderella of sorts. Dunno if you'd agree though. Emily (shrieking): how dare you???. Im, as a Venusian, I think I deserve better.

Carl: Well. I don't get on that well with my dad anyways, and, besides, it's better than living in the basement of his country place, like some rats.

Emily: well, in that case, if you want me to be a commodity to pimp out I reserve the right to pimp you out as well, roflmfao. (starts yelling at Carl): go work in construction, or whatever, now. I want you to nigger, before hitting the sauce

Back when I lived in upstate new york 

A meaningless, unimpressive, self-serving introduction. An indicator that the story about to be shared will be pointless and dumb.
Back when I lived in upstate new york, I also had to park on the street - on two occasions, we got enough snow, mixed with just the right plowing, that my car was lifted off the ground from so much snow being jammed underneath it.
