I did wonder about that but wasn't sure about laws Stateside. I know that she would breaching both UK and European Laws.
To be fair to Dora, I don't think being single, attractive or being in their 20s is a prerequisite -- just the group 1she knows.[1]
[1] I think that, under British Law, that's still a breach of the Law because jobs (unless they are internal only) need to be properly advertised and shown to have a fair selection mechanism. However, I'm not an expert so I might be wrong.
Border Reiver:
Dale - because a man can work 4 jobs - not well, but that's not the point.

I'm no expert, but generally speaking companies in the US aren't allowed to discriminate by age, gender, religion, race, or disability. How they go about enforcing that can vary from state to state.
Carl-E:
You forgot a few...
Sarah - will bring back the allosaur trade
Raven - fanservice at its best!
Lydia - finally finished her degree and is now ready for the job most music majors wind up with (it's this or, "you want fries with that?)
The real Pizzagirl - the pizzeria closed, and CoD wants to branch out into coffee delivery.
OK, the first two are technically rehires... and there must be others. Maybe Ellen's back from her semester at sea?
And I've been wodering about this - four weeks ago, WCT (Weekly Comic Talk) became WDT. Just a typo? Is this a new acronym I'm missing?
Want to make one up?

I forgot about Lydia and the real PG. I think Lydia would be the one who'd fit in best in CoD. After all, she's not extreme in any way and already acquainted with them. Dora would like her because, apart from being a good person and committed worker, she doesn't put up with Sven's crap.
I think that Lydia should be the next employee. Dora gets a good worker and Sven has even more reason to stay straight.
