"My job got Bangalored a week ago"

We had always heard of big brands becoming common nouns or verbs. For example, on one of the occasions, my Macro Economics prof told the class, "I don't want you to just do some Googling and submit your project".

On the very same lines, I happened to come across the word "Bangalored", which means outsourced. This is how it's used...

John, a Seattle based call center executive, met his girlfriend Anita. John looked unusually sad. On being asked why he look like that, John replied, "You know what has happened, I am out of office...my job has been Bangalored".
