A few years back, IT management at a company I was contracting at, asked all 
the contractors to make a business case for why they should renew the contracts.

I was ready to let it go, but decided to write a paragraph about the fact 
that they had no idea who I was, and had never heard of me. It helped that a 
sister company just had a few two and three days down time of major systems 
when OS upgrades went wrong ; we had gone through those same OS upgrades, 
and they just had not realised it, it was business as usual. I was the first 
contractor to be renewed !
