In the time of global meltdown, all we hear or read is "Pink Slip". So while discussing the impact of this global meltdown on India with one of my friends, i started thinking about the association color PINK with this PINK SLIP. Handing a Pink Slip means nothing but Firing or Terminating a person from his job. So if that was the case then it should have been RED cuz thats the color we associate with FIRE, aint it? Or since its a black day for an employee it should have been called BLACK SLIP as well but PINK????Out of all the colors??????? PINK????????
I still wonder why!!?!?!?!?!?!?!

PINK SLIP: [Pink slip refers to the American practice, by a personnel department, of including a discharge notice (printed on pink paper) in an employee's pay envelope to notify the worker of his or her termination of employment or layoff.[1] According to an article in The New York Times, the editors of the Random House Dictionary dated the term to at least 1910.[1] Originally the color of the paper had no particular significance. In the UK and Ireland the equivalent of a pink slip is a P45, in Belgium the equivalent is known as a C4.]
