    Oregon has always had one of the highest min. wages in the country (along with WA and AK), but as of about 3 years ago we had always had one of the lowest unemployment rates in the country.

      I did the same thing, went from a movie theatre at 6.75 or some BS to a 12.15 start at a bank while in high school. Doubling your pay feels great. :D

              its because we have so many people coming over from across the river.
