At first it was a simple phone call. A coworker contacted the author to ask if he remembered how to file something. Then it was an email, a message, and another phone call. Before long, the former employee was being contacted by his ex-coworkers every week and sometimes multiple times a day, always regarding how to do something he was no longer paid to do.
While the author concedes that he always got along with the folks on his team, after a while, he started to resent them for this. Eventually, it got to the point where he had to say something and put his foot down. If he is not going to be rehired or brought on as a consultant for his former company, then he had no time, desire, or energy to continue to support a business that took him for granted. Talk about not know what you’ve got until it’s gone!
