Regardless of if they did have a consultant it was so true and so funny.
I used to work at the US Holocaust Museum as a "burgundy" jacket.  We
didn't eat with the security in the "blue" jackets, but we did hang out
with the conservation folks in the "white/no jacket" folks and to get the
people who worked in the offices (development/research/admin.) to talk to
us we had to remove our jackets, or else all they saw was the jacket and
not the person underneath.

Part of this has to do with age and background.  Blue jackets tended to be
Afro-Americans 25-50 with a AA/BA and an odd MBA here and there, the
burgundy jackets were fresh out of college, white (with the exception of
myself), hoping to use the job as a stepping stone, and some white
jackets were ex-burgundy jackets.

You may have expected more from such a museum, because of its subject
matter, but remember it is a just a musuem and not real life.
mmm
