My 30-year-old married daughter moved to Portland from Arizona last summer because she fell in love with the place when visiting friends who’d moved there. She’s got extensive experience as a waitress but couldn’t get a server job because they tend to promote from within after making you start at the bottom! After less than a year there, she’s planning on leaving ASAP because she’s sick of the expense, the traffic, and especially the self-absorbed whining Portlandians, lol. She’s been working as a medical courier for the last few months, driving to places like McMinnville, and she really loves it, mainly because of the scenic countryside and the solitude!
It’s hard to believe these people are the descendants of the pioneers that came all the way across a continent on foot, on horseback and in covered wagons, fighting off Indians, wild animals and starvation....................
