JOB POSTING: White Center Community Development Association Seeks “Happy Techie”

We here at the White Center Blog do our best to not only report on local news and events, but unlike other local websites, we also try to help our community (that’s right – we’ve gotten our hands dirty with fundraisers, helped the Rat City Roller Girls clean up the streets, and you’ll see some of us at this Saturday’s Spring Clean Up as well).

That’s why we’re posting this “Help Wanted” Ad for the White Center Community Development Association, which is seeking to hire a “Happy Techie” – but act fast as the deadline to apply is Monday, May 18th:
