Damn him with non-committal answers.

That's always the best way - clients should know that if you can't find anything positive to say, then the guy is useless.

If they don't know that, then more fool them.

Have you been taking bullsh!t lessons from Threaded or gormless lessons from Wilmslow?

Who asked you to chip in? If you can help then fine. If you can't help piss off.

I've just found out that, someone who I worked with at a previous client, will also be working at the new client site Im at.

Nothing special in that but, this character is really, really obnoxious and a racist to boot. Every other word that comes out of his mouth is 'F' this, 'F' that. The other words are the 'N' word, 'coon' and 'black bastards.'

I really dont know how this guy manages to find work but that's another matter. I dont want to be associated with this person.

What should I do if Im asked about this person seeing as we 'worked' at the same client site previously?

Could almost be talking about me.

Is he a cowardly rascist? i.e. only says things behind their backs?

Wait till he gets off site and kick him in the nads, explain to him that is how it feels to be racially abused

I suspect because we worked in the same dept at the last client site, that questions could well be asked.

Professionally, he isnt very good. He was actually terminated for unsound work at the last client but another manager who was a mate brought him back! Eyebrows were raised and questions were asked about that I can assure you. When he came back he worked in another area but people told me they'd regularly complain about his lack of work. When his last contract ran out, he wasnt renewed.

As a person, he's racist.

But good advice nonetheless.

Separate your assessment of him as a worker from your opinion of him as a person. Answer questions on the first honestly, without laying yourself open to any come-back. Deflect questions on the latter, you shouldn't be being asked them.

Just steer clear of him if you can.

If they ask, tell them what he is like.

We had one (contractor) like that once, we had a word with the relevant people and he was gone after a day.

There is no place for that in the workplace, you need to behave professionally however bigoted and idiotic your private opinions.

I agre. He came out with the 'N' word in the office when no permie's were in earshot. I told him that wasnt acceptable and he just laughed.

[BolshieBastard]

It's just some bloke who happened to be at the same site as you. It's not your life partner.

Is he any good at his job (dispite being a knob)?

No. He really is ******* tulipe. And that's not just my opinion of him.
