The recreational marijuana shop has been very short handed these last few months.
- Some of the reason is due to the pandemic, and some of the reason is simply due to a large amount of turnover.
We lost a couple of employees when a new recreational marijuana shop opened a lounge and hired more people. Honestly, the shop has been slower since that place opened. We still have to stay open from morning until night, and there are less people to fill those hours. I’ve been working a lot of overtime during the last 3 months. I work every day during the week from eight until six, and then I also work Saturdays from open until close. I usually take off Sunday, but I work if the boss needs someone to fill a few hours that day. I’m trying to save money, because my girlfriend and I want to take a vacation to the islands. We have been learning how to scuba dive for a while, but we haven’t been able to go anywhere that is a tropical location. All of the dives are very expensive. I’ve been taking all of the overtime offered at the marijuana shop so my girlfriend and I can book our tickets and go during the offseason. The water might be a little colder, but we will still be able to enjoy the dive experience. I want to visit a few of the underwater wrecks that are only sixty or eighty feet under the water. The reefs are going to be a nice place for the two of us to practice our new skills.
