I was hoping for one of the images to have someone photoshop-replaced like in the infamous Microsoft snafu

But you're not, are you?

Good Girl!

Nah!

I've always found it quite amusing that the girl on Head First Design Patterns can also be found advertising Vagisil

You worry me Nick. You really do!

I'm surprised that particular picture is so popular considering the lengths some companies go to in order to push their 'diversity' credentials.

Remember this: http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/8221896.stm

And anyone who has worked on an HP site would think they had joined the UN judging by the gumph plastered all over the walls.

Not faulting your maths or anything like that - but aren't there two men in the picture?

It's like they say: everyone in IT is a man, or used to be.

Are you telling me that the brunette doesn't really work at ContractorUK.

I'm gutted.

It's like they say: everyone in IT is a man, or used to be.

I once sub-contracted some work to a software house in Cambridge. After a meeting with a couple of their techies I returned to the office and reported back to my manager. He asked "what do you think then?"

I replied that I thought we could do business and that the girl "xxxxx" seemed particularly clued up!

Everyone in the office burst out laughing as I was told that "xxxxx" used to be called "David" and hadn't I seen the size of "her" hands!
