Although not at IBM, in the late 70s/early 80s I was the "model" for a photo that went into an annual report. The photographers are the ones that insist on the pose. They insisted that I be "doing something" even though that "something" was to act like I was pressing a button on a machine that was not complete yet, and which if pressed would have done nothing whatsoever. This, despite my insistence that this pose was clearly nonsense. mcl
