Does it exist a black list for IT contractors?

People think 'black lists' dont exist?
OK, try telling Rullion Manchester you will be opting 'in' when they contact you about a role. Then see if you're put forward.
Have a successful interview with LBG then turn down their kind offer. See how long it takes before you get another interview with them.
Officially no blacklist but almost certainly a 'decision' not to take you.I couldn't give two fornicators! Yes, really!Comment

Of course there's a blacklist, but it's written in a black font on a black background and kept on the dark web, so even if you find it you'll still be in the dark...
For anyone who's worried that they might be on it, there's a copy on the wider world web:-

I have my own black list of people who I've worked with whose ability I do not rate.
In my area reputation is very important as it’s quite a niche area.
I regularly get calls from ex colleagues when they’re interviewing to ask about potential candidates and If I think they are crap, I will say so.I'm sorry, but I'll make no apologies for this
