My time has come

My time has come to a glorious end. Due to the ending of my position at work, I will likely be moving out of Portland at the end of February.

Let me say that this is a wonderful, beautiful, progressive area and I will never forget my time here.

I will have spent 6 months and 3 weeks in Portland and over half a year I have come to love the NW.

Oh the west coast just has that vibe.

Sad news.....I have enjoyed your past posts. You will be missed. Be sure to let us know where you end up. Wherever that city is, I will take a gander looking for your posts. Good luck!

Thanks! Ya know, I would stay but economics is a force few people can conquer fully.

Damn, man! Now I'm all alone as the new guy! Good luck wherever you're going next.

heckles...not meaning to step totally out of place...but you seem to bounce around a lot. Are you sure you aren't giving up on P-town too early? I can think of a couple contacts to help you get into another job here. The market is really strong here right now, I just am kinda curious why you are leaving at THIS time, while jobs are relatively easy to come by.

I haven't found a high paying quality job as of yet, and its not a Portland thing. Maybe I need to focus on getting into another line of work or specializing in something.

But as far as Portland goes, I'm not giving up on Portland. Its a great place, and I'm glad to have spent a good period of my life here. I don't think in the course of the next several weeks I'll find some magical position that allows me to stay.

nothin' wrong with bouncing around, unless you absolutely want to stay...

You weren't with Freightliner, were you?

Whats freightliner? I work with HP until later this month.

Ya know, I need to get out there and do a photo shoot before going. I need to capture the memories forever.

Gee, I could never imagine living in a city for just 6 months.

Well, good luck anyway!
