In relation to shock absorber dampening, it is the movement that compresses the internal oil or gas volume, thus often referred to as "compression".

In shock absorbers, a bump adjustment is a change to the dampening of the shock on the compression stroke. As a car passes over a bump on the track, each wheel assembly rises up to pass over it. Without compression dampening, the inertia of the wheel assembly would cause it to continue to rise after the bump until the spring finally overcomes the inertia and pushes the wheel back down. Since a tire can't do any work while in the air, bump dampening stops the upward inertia and allows the tire to stay in constant contact with the pavement. Bump adjustments can also affect how the weight of the car shifts around during braking, acceleration and cornering.

The act of taking one's position and forcing the incumbent employee to another position, based on seniority. OR To move physically out of position.

In unionised organisations, be they private or public sector, "bumping" means a re-assignment of jobs on the basis of seniority. As an example, if a job becomes vacant, more than one person may be re-assigned to different tasks or ranks on the basis of who has worked for the organisation longer. As the next lower person assumes the duties of the person who has vacated his or her job, now the job of the replacement person likewise becomes vacant and must thus be filled by the next person with the appropriate seniority level.
