I just took a look at my profile and noticed the imbalance between the number of recommendations I've left for others (109) vs how many I've received (10) and I can't help but be a bit disappointed as I wrote every one that I left from scratch for that specific person based upon our prior work and or social experience although I could have used one of the social recommendation generators that are available online. If you're not good at writing these and want some help in order to leave some for work associate look here.

None of them are without some drawbacks but they'll give you some ideas if nothing else. I am surprised that mine is the only recommendation that our Commander In Chief has received on here and it would rock if he would give me one back wouldn't it? (*cough, cough*)
