Looking for potential roles in PDX. Posting a redacted resume. The heading on this resume is for customer solutions professional, but I am also really great with data entry and very tech savvy. I am also taking classes in python. Something in the greater PDX area would be strongly preferable since I don't have a car (I do have a driver's license, just to clarify) unless the work is within a reasonable commute. I also have a lot healthcare experience. Ping me!

So Kotek is really losing this, huh? We just spent an hour in traffic to learn Biden is on a Hail Mary trip tonight in PDX. Screwing with our weekend to save a bid that should have been in the bag. Hardesty also likely to be KO’d by a Republican (Gonzales). It’s not just Oregon, but Portland specifically. What’s the broader read if deep Blue OR is flipping? I didn’t think this possible here with Roe momentum.
