"where is the rest of this guy's PPE?" Pictures of a lab I worked in were taken, we were marched out because we were almost all fat middle aged white guys, then a team of Very attractive college students of politically correct gender and race were marched in and pictures were taken for the PR brochure. Also the photography crew had a team of makeup artists making last minute corrections, and PPE is going to mess that up. More important to get the hair and makeup correct than proper wearing of gear. Responses were highly variable, ranging from don't care to absolutely incensed. The people who were incensed got pretty mercilessly teased about it later on, all in good fun. I suspect this is not an isolated incident when lab pix are taken. Also comically on NANOG mailing list a long time ago I remember a legendary thread about one particular male model that somehow appeared in multiple competing long distance company ads and a couple competing telecom gear ads, before merger mania. Someone screwed up and ran two ads with him in the same industry trade rag leading to someone on NANOG noticing he's in the Cisco ad and the AT&T ad or whatever it was.
