Oh yeah, absolutely. That’s what I use at my place, great investment.

They have a hammock? If not then hammock

I mean the cbd owner is very outspoken about how shitty she is, employees are too

Much better, hit up speckled axe, bard or any of the other numerous, amazing coffee shops around Portland. And if you hit speckled axe and get a handsome mustachioed barista tip him well, he’s my brother haha

Yeah this is a very recent decision and I’m sure those ads were already arranged. We had a change at the Vice President level, an old VP returning. From what I understand the decision was made to stop the hiring while we kind of switch gears. It may not be a true hiring freeze, they might let some trickle in but they are definitely going to slow down hiring. If you are interested definitely show up to any events that are around you, and definitely apply. I’m not trying to discourage you, just letting you know what I’ve heard.

I currently work there. From what I understand we are currently in a 6 month hiring freeze. That could change though at any time. I would recommend taking anything you would feel comfortable doing that they offer to you. Honestly. Once you’re in the yard and you get a feel for it, as long as another trade is hiring and you make sure to talk to the people in that trade to pull your application, moving trades is relatively straightforward. I am a blaster and I love it, been there for 12 years. It is definitely a lot of hard work. Just like any other job it has its ups and downs, long list of pros and equally long list of cons but I wouldn’t give it up. Can’t beat the pay, the benefits, union gig, and at the end of the day we’re putting together a product that is there to protect us.
