It's the best time of the year again: Shark Week. This tradition of a week-long television event featuring shark-themed programming is in its thirty-first year. At this point, it's a national pastime that should be honored with a holiday in which none of us have to go to work.

Since my Shark Week Holiday dreams haven't come true quite yet, we are still at work and have decided to bring you your regularly scheduled blog post this week. However, we will be celebrating by sharing a bit of the spirit in this collection of memes specifically chosen to represent the recruiting process.
