    шутл.
    "уволить с повышением", отправить в почётную отставку [образовано по аналогии с выражением kick smb. downstairs спустить кого-л. с лестницы]

    Of all the attacks upon Hopkins, the one that probably angered and amazed him most was the fantastic charge that, in the fall of 1943, he had plotted behind the scenes in the White House to have General Marshall removed from his positon as Chief of Staff and "kicked upstairs" to some sinecure command in Europe. (R. E. Sherwood, ‘Roosevelt and Hopkins’, ‘Introduction’) — Среди всех нападок на Гопкинса, вероятно, более всего раздражало его и удивляло фантастическое обвинение, будто осенью 1943 года он интриговал за кулисами Белого дома, чтобы добиться увольнения генерала Маршалла с поста начальника генерального штаба и перевода его якобы с повышением в действующую армию на европейский фронт.

    If they like me, and it seems that they may do, they'll take a little longer to tick me out. They might even kick me upstairs... While as for support - that's a different cup of tea. (C. P. Snow, ‘Corridors of Power’, ch. XVII) — Если они ко мне расположены - а похоже, что это так, - они просто немного подождут, прежде чем выставить меня. Они могут даже выставить меня с повышением... что же до того, чтобы оказать поддержку - это уже другой коленкор.
