In the workplace, we often see this phenomenon, every company will always have some "idler", during the daily working hour, they will do nothing and annoyed everyone. But at the critical time, these "idler" can play an unexpected role and bring some value to the company, so they are treated special in the company.
In fact, these so-called "idler" is not a real idler, they have a certain background, have their own social, have their own resources, have their own special skills, and so on, but they didn’t use in the daily working hour.
We often only see the surface, after time passed, it will become clearer that these “idler” in the company, although disgusting, but can not easily replaced.

When some people leave the company, some of them will still have a certain relationship with the company's leadership or boss.
For most people, once left the company, will not interfere with each other, even more, there will be a sense of never to see you again.
For the company, any ordinary position is insignificant, if the person in this position is not good enough, he/she can be easily replaced. However, many companies only see their own superficial interests, short-term interests, has never been considered in the long term.
A position can be replaced, but the person in this position hidden good relation with people, ideological value, social resources and professional quality cannot be replaced easily.
