Has anyone noticed the radical right wing underbelly of this site or am I just being over sensitive?
The only people round here with underbellies are the obese, if any, or giant alien lizards. So the question is fattist and speciest. And RRH accuses _us_ of prejudice - talk about the pot calling the kettle, er, differently hued.

I'm definitely 'recruitist'. They're a breed apart, and barely human, and should go back to flippin' burgers, where they belong. We don't those types on here or anywhere near us lowering the tone of the place with their gelled hair and wide ties and lead thieving, margin hiking tendencies.
Fortunately Denny no one really takes you very seriously. This is a good thing as this board occasionally acts as a forum for views that require a certain amount of objectivity. So hill billy rednecks like you are not very helpful to a lot of contractors who may genuinely need help from some of the more "experienced" ( ) contractors in the industry.
Aside from that this board does a pretty good line in ridicule, cynicism and flippancy, though I am pretty sure that it is not intended to be a bigots blog site.
Agents are a fact of life and we are here to stay until some bright spark comes up with an alternative, and one thing you are not Denny is a "bright spark"

There is a fancy dress shop near where I work called Sniggers
I think certain people on this board would object in case a black guy called stephen walked past and got offended.
Why dont we cut out the middleman and ban the letters b and g from the alphabet

I.T. never claimed to be a bastion of intellectuals! Having said that, I've met some decent types (black, white, Indian, gay.....) in I.T. who I WOULD live next door to!
A classic thing I read on here a couple years ago was a reference to Indians writing code to take jobs away from Brits for 'a bowl of rice'. Throw-away comments like that betray gross ignorance and are very, very common here, even if only said in jest.
