    It depends
    Be careful how you treat people on your way up, you may meet them again on your way back down.

    It does seem strange to me. I'm not sure if it's a matter of common practice in culture or change meanings of words.

    I can remember when I was young and traveling, a British fellow used the non-contracted version, saying "Is it not..." and I thought for a bit, said yes, than no, than just stated my thoughts in a full sentence. It really threw me for a loop, for exactly the reason in the first post.
