The term used to describe a common phenomenon in most workplaces in which a colleague takes a leave of absence and dumps their workload onto their fellow colleagues. These colleagues, mostly known as “Gav’s”, revel in their ability to pass their work onto others whilst sipping on cocktails on a beach and claiming to be ‘off-sick’ all at the same time. The term “Getting Gav’d” can be applied to all colleagues in the workplace who fit this persona, simply change the name to fit your asshole colleague – i.e “Getting Phill’d, Getting Gary’d, Getting Shanice’d”
