It's always nice to see someone escorted offsite.

When I was with IBM one of the account DPEs had the temerity to resign to take up a job with HP, he was out of the building and on gardening leave within 5 minutes

Nope, not this time, I'm still here. The other guy got escorted off site ( Gross Misconduct I believe, emphasis on the Gross ).

Now if you claimed *he* was MF you might have been closer

Maybe its just permies who can't handle the competition.

No-one told me it was a competition

Is it me?

On my current gig I am now the longest serving contractor on the project ( or will be once the latest departure happens in a couple of weeks. )

In the 9 months i've been here so far one quit to go permie elsewhere, one quit for a better gig, one quit for "personal reasons" and one was escorted from the premesis.
