Maybe you are, maybe you aren't.
Even if you aren't, a professional recommendation can go a *long* way for
you, so go for it!
Possible outcomes:
They say "no."
They give you a generic letter of recommendation (good).
They give you a personal letter of recommendation (great!).
They say, "Hey, we've got a job open here that you're PERFECT for!"
(usually only happens in the movies, but worth a shot anyway).
The worst that could happen is that you're where you are now, so you
literally have nothing to lose.
On the other hand, a letter of recommendation (even if it's generic) can
go a long way towards getting a job, so go for it!
