In this episode WebWare’s CEO Philip Hart sacks his Sales Director for underperforming. Philip uses 2 expressions to do this. The first is I’m going to have to let you go which is quite a gentle way of expressing the fact. The second is You’re fired, which is a little more direct.
在今天的视频中，我们看到，网络公司的老板Philip Hart因自己的员工表现不佳，而将对方开除，他用了2个短语来表达这个意思，一个是比较委婉的“let you go”, 另一个则是比较直接的表达“you are fired你被开除了”。
There are even more ways to express this in English. Dismiss and discharge are both quite formal下面给大家列出一些其他的表示“开除”的短语和句子:
He was dismissed for turning up late on a regular basis.
The director was discharged of his duties.
Other less formal, but more colourful ways of saying the same thing are:
give someone the axe
give someone their cards
give someone the boot
