Ask FPH: How do you describe a fat co-worker in the presence of clients or intra-company employees? Hi, i work in a job that requires me to travel and contact folks in the finance industry on a daily basis.  Everyone on my team can be called out to a client for a visit for consultations and training.  Currently, due to longevity with our company, Carrol is the most experienced team member but she's also a disgusting piece of 300lbs shit.   When we travel we bill our expenses out to our clients, Carrols expenses have infuriated some customer (food expenses are aways the max and there is an occasional extra seat on the plane....) but she is great at what she does.  A client ask me today "how would you describe Carrol?"  THe first thing I wanted to say was "the fat bitch is smart...." but i didn't.  I think maybe I should let clients know.... What do you all think?
