FBI Uses "Parks and Recreation" Finale to Recruit People

The FBI is using Tuesday night's "Parks and Recreation" series finale as a recruitment tactic for its agency.
Following the finale, the FBI tweeted a farewell message to the show, and threw out a (backhand) compliment to Burt Tyrannosaurus Macklin, an alter ego of Andy Dwyer played by Chris Pratt.
In the finale, Pratt says, "Macklin, you son of a bitch" after he finds a clue in video footage.
Less than a day after the episode aired, the @FBI tweeted: "Your ways were unconventional, but you'll be missed Macklin. #ParksFarewell To learn about a real FBI career, visit http://www.FBIjobs.gov."
Apparently, Macklin's career is not "real" enough, but the FBI still hopes it will inspire people to work for the government agency.
