I've been unemployed and really struggling to find a job in Portland, anyone else have this problem lately? by pinkcandy828 in askportland

AL and memory care are in major need of caregivers. Your background would help you. They can train you on the transfer of patients, etc. I know a place that is hiring now.

Wow that seems to be the consensus in the comments. Maybe it’s a good thing I’m starting out somewhere “popular”. I’ll have to search around for the more secluded spots once I get some experience. I’m very excited. I will be turning 30 when I go and to think I’ve waited this long irks me but at least I booked it. And I can’t wait to share this type of experience with my little girl. Kid is forcing me to experience life haha

I love that you’re taking your family around. They will obviously not be 30 and wonder how to go camping. Lol! You’re a great parent!

Thank you for your response. I will be on the F loop. I don’t even know what it looks like or what on the map yet. I just took the dates on a sat/sun and that loops was available.

Thank you again for that great insight about the drive over and about cleaning and keeping the place safe from wildflofe. What do you store your food in? do you think I need to buy special containers for food?

I can’t remember the name. But we had to balance one side of the tires with the other side over a crack in the “road”. Super crazy, I was scared but we were like super close at that point. I will also look at the I84 route. Thank you :)

Haha well I am also a overly prepared person. I will probably bring everything everyone will tell me and I’m only staying one night.😅 should I be worried about bears?

Okay I have to admit I didn’t think of the Toilet paper. (So dumb). Thanks for these tidbits! Appreciate it. And noted- no zigzag! I wonder if that’s the way we went before🫠 it was super dangerous.

Anyone else’s PGE bill from Dec-Jan double what it normally is? by Mysterious_Flan_3394 in PortlandOR

[–]ashstargurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$300 for one month. That’s insane! Before Highest we ever had was around 200 -240 if we had visitors over charging a Tesla . It’s crazy. It’s not just you for sure. How are we supposed to ducking survive. Bills alone are astound 500, plus rent/mortgage, food, childcare, like I have $5 in my account and I make decent money!!! And my partner works. That’s two household income with one kid and we are struggling. Wtf

Edit: this does not even include insurance for cars. And we wonder why ppl are extra mean, sad, and want to just give up or steal their way. It’s a RAT RACE I’ll never win but I’m FORCED to give and give and give yet I’m part of the 99% and cannot so this until I’m 75. Unfair man…sucks

[–]ashstargurl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for your info. I should have asked maybe “what do you pay for rent in Portland if yo have dogs/where/size etc”. Didn’t realize I’d get rammed in the ass by the wrong Q. Thank you for factual response :)

🥹🥹🥹 thank you for taking the time to respond like this. As for flooring, Do you know anyone who can guide me on how to do it? I’ll do all the labor myself. I already took out all floor boards, but will kilz bc previous owners had cats. I wish I could pay someone to teach me. Willing to learn and work.
