    It's a bit like life really. We will all die and after a while we will be forgotten.... Hence we need religion to make sense out of this otherwise crazy and pointless existence.
    brought a tear to my eye.

          I've been a victim of this and its been down to management pressure at one place because they saw ending the contract as rejecting a full time role.

          I found it upsetting at the time, until one guy mailed me and let slip that the boss wasn't happy I left....

            Very occasionally you will hook up with someone who turns into a mate but almost everyone else will be a friend of convenience. You are helping them get through the day and vice versa, game of footy, the odd ale etc.
            Easy to test this, you leave, get an invite to a get together and spend the time saying - is so and so still there, does phil still come in late every day blah blah. Then they will start talking about something that happened that week. You weren't there, all you had in common was you worked together, it's all over, move on.
            3 weeks after anyone leaves, no-one even remembers what they look like....
