I did not expect this. I just hired a very nice and talented young man who looks like a Muslim with the big beard and all that.

Since hiring him, I have had 9 complaints that they did not want this installer in their house.

The thing is.. he is not Muslim at all... He just has a big beard, but he is so good at what he does.

What should I do?

No you did not. You are not in a position that requires hiring people.

Talk to him, tell him the truth. Ask him if he wants to change his appearance. Ask about his behavior. Does he do anything that makes people worried? I'm guessing the answer to that is no, but never hurts. I would guess he'll appreciate you being honest rather than one day just having to fire him and then explain it to him at that time.

You hired him with the beard. I would tell your clients that you have great faith in his character and capabilities.

Grow a beard too and show your customers that the same professionalism they see in you is the same in your employee. I'm sure he will appreciate the support.

If he busts his butt and is a good employee do the right thing and take up for him. It's not his fault the customers are first class idiots.

If he sucks you fire him.

This. Explain to them if they want top quality, that's what you get.

Reminds me of an incident about a year ago. I live in a very conservative place. Very very few black people. Even among construction workers/house workers, etc.

We were having work done on our house. Two of the workers were black. I wake up one day to the sound of a siren. I go outside. My next door neighbor had called the cops because "black people were breaking into" my house. I was so fricking pissed.

Strap a couple sticks of dynamite to his waist and see how comfortable he is wearing it. That should let you know how loyal of a guy he could pan out to be.

Is your employee a good employee?

Does your business require him to be clean shaven?

If the answers are no...then tell them he's just being...presidential

Tell him it would be best if he stopped yelling Allahu Akbar
before knocking on the door.
