Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Is it wierd that this organization is asking for letters of recommendation?
Does linkedin count?
(I think letters of recommendation are weird, myself)
Good luck, Theodosia!

Ann, that's a ferret.
The Federal government means that DC's economy isn't going to fall below a certain point. The down side is, getting hired by the Feds is a long process.

Because books.
People. The clear choice is SW Philly!
Good luck, Theo!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

They just seem so potentially fake. But maybe that's just me -- when I was an intern for the City of Philadelphia, I wrote my parents a letter on Mayor Rendell's letterhead and signed it, and they totally believed it was from him. Oops.

Trust my rage

Ii think it's weird unless you are in an industry where you might have letters of recommendation from former supervisors that might be hard to get a hold of in the future. (I had a letter of recommendation from a judge once because I/she didn't want people calling her for every job I might apply for. Joe once had several letters from generals for a position where there was a review board.)

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
We use letters of recommendation all the time, but it's like pulling teeth to get them. We generally need about three or four every granting cycle. I always feel weird about them.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
Happy Birthday to Nutty and to Spidra!
Good luck, Theo!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Has the "war on terror" gone too far? Are people just needlessly afraid?
Police detonate suspicious toy pony
A “suspicious” toy pony was blown up after it was found abandoned in the middle of a cul-de-sac near an Orange County elementary school this morning.
The FurReal pony, an expensive, life-like toy, was investigated as a possible explosive device after someone called Orange County deputies to report it. A robot inspected the toy before a pack of explosives was placed near the stuffed animal and detonated.
