Ed, Ed, do you have, uh, other ideas about besides finding people that have the job you want to, to identify people who might make good mentors both in your network and your community as a whole?

Yeah, so 15 years ago I moved to Portland, and it was in two thou- 2010.

And, um, took me a long time to find a job, like 10 months, 10 months to find a job.

I know some may be searching longer, and your wife you shared searched for a long time.

But I had already finished, you know, my undergraduate degree, had finished a master's degree by then, had experience, and had a hard time finding a job.

Anyhow, I finally land this job, and my first boss here in Portland is still my mentor years later.

I still have, we have lunch together at a, at a Thai restaurant every maybe three months.

Tia, Ed, final words?
