Thankfully we have a great security guard who is an ex-police officer.
There was a terrible thunderstorm yesterday, and I was stuck at work at the cannabis shop. I thought about calling the bus to take the day off, but I did not know if she was going to be busy and short-handed. I arrived shortly before 10 and started my shift. It was already raining heavily at that point. We had a long list of deliveries for the driver who was not due to arrive until noon. The manager asked me to call all of the customers to let them know that the deliveries would not start until then. The delivery driver finally arrived shortly before noon and the manager sent him right out with the first of the marijuana deliveries. When Jack got back to the store, there were three additional marijuana deliveries waiting to go. The storm became much more fierce in the afternoon. Several trees were down on the same street and the lights kept flickering on and off during the storm. The security guard was posted outside of the shop, because our alarm system wasn’t working. With the power going in and out, it was impossible to set the alarm on the front door of the marijuana dispensary. Thankfully we have a great security guard who is an ex-police officer. He kept the building safe and secure during the power failure. The storm lasted all day and late until the evening hours as well. When I finally got home from work around 8 PM, the rain was starting to slow down. That’s good too, because the temperature dropped by ten degrees and the rain would have become snow.
