Racist in the workplace.

[BolshieBastard]

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?

[NotAllThere]

Damn him with non-committal answers.

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)?

Is he OK with Asians / Indians?

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.

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

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.

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.

[norrahe]

Just steer clear of him if you can.
