EN: fired, dismissed
When your boss says "You're fired!", in old-school Tagalog, you've been `despatsado`. It means you've been sent packing. Can also be used for things, like when a customer's order is finally shipped. "Okay, `despatsado` na ang J&T parcel mo, antayin mo na lang." So it can mean "you're out" or "it's out." Context is key!
From Spanish 'despachado' (dispatched, dismissed).
Has two main meanings: being fired from a job (more common and older usage) and having something dispatched or sent (more modern, logistics-related usage).
