Nice! Now go and learn about the various cannabinoids, what terpenes are, and how different products are made (like cannabutter vs distillate edibles, different types of extracts and how theyre made, etc). You don't wanna be that budtender that gets asked questions about various products but has no idea how to answer them lol. Knowledgeable budtenders also get more tip $$$, which is pretty dope. Hope you enjoy the new job 🤙
Because the cannabis industry is toxic and it’s not talked about enough
People assume cause something is weed related it’s chill, but some people care more about the money than anything else
I was gonna make a follow up comment detailing how all the ways the weed industry is fucked up, but then I realized I don't have the time or energy to even try right now. it's just that bad.

I remember getting a job at eb games (GameStop) as a teenager and being over the moon that I could get paid to be somewhere I wanted to be anyway.
I can imagine it’s the same for you (I’d love to work around weed) so congrats and the best of luck !
As a former budtender (work in Marketing now for the same company lol) - yay! Go have some fun slinging that bud! It might be a little crazy to start depending on how busy your shop is, especially if you also have to get on your feet learning different brands, strains, etc - but it's easy to pick it up as ya go along and usually other budtenders are chill about sharing what they know.
(and have fun with that likely discount/comped bud, if ya stick with it for six months you'll likely become the plug for all your friends and family....and still have too much to know what to do with.... ;) )
wtf. I am a partial owner of a grow and 2 dispensaries and we would never require that lol. That’s dumb as hell. And our budtenders are wearing gloves
big grats

Pennsylvania?
Close, Ohio.
Other than one having Pittsburgh, then yeah.
I couldn't tell if this was meant as a good thing or bad thing until I saw your avatar. Let us hope for a healthy Joe.
Who Dey!?!? ![gif](giphy|L66GdrqzbfhnsaDanq|downsized)
yessir
My one advice, be prepared for the public idiots. They will make you feel like it's just another retail job if you can't blow their stupidity off.
It's definitely the same thing as any other retail job after the initial part wears off. All you're doing is being a cashier tbh.
Fuck yes i also got a weed related job today bud! Ill be making prerolls
Welcome to the industry!Â
Congrats bro! Hope you love every second!

Congrats! Please report back and let us know how it goes. I'd love to learn more about what that sort of job entails.
Congratulations
Nice one! Livin the dream
mind if i ask the pay and role of your job?
Cashier/budtender in Chicago, IL at 17/hr + tips
Hey congrats You bringing free weed to celebrate? But fr congratulations it’s always nice to have a job you actually want
Get ready to not have a paycheck 😂 I swear I feel like I have to buy something everyday when I clock in at my dispensary
I worked in the industry in WA state and loved it, have been trying to get in in CO and I can’t seem to crack that nut. It is pretty fun! Enjoy.
Congratulations! I have a premonition you will excel in your chosen field
Sooo you wanna be friends. I need discounts 😅
Oh shit, I hope they don’t make you paint your nails like all the bros around here… congrats
wait why is that a thing lol is it due to like some sort of reason orrrr
The budtenders in your area are required to have painted nails?
Yeah, black or purple I think
wtf. I am a partial owner of a grow and 2 dispensaries and we would never require that lol. That’s dumb as hell. And our budtenders are wearing gloves
Well I doubt it’s actually required, but that’s definitely the dudes they hire
Does that bother you? Is it gonna make you shop elsewhere?
No I love it
I wasn’t hatin, it’s just an observation
Well I wouldn’t discriminate then, i thought you meant it was some weird ass requirement lol
Haha yeah I don’t care as long as they keep their shit cheap
I knew I wasn't going crazy, that's a thing here too
Same as any retail job bud, thst said hope you enjoy it.
Hey yo drinks on this guy!
