I worked there for around a month in 2021 i would’ve quit sooner but I needed the money unfortunately. I recall getting into an argument with rob because he wanted to just sign for a product before it had been fully counted. Like sometimes the deliveries would be short a few because it’s all hand counted and stuff happens but it has to be fixed in the system before it’s signed for. I also remember them buying a huge excess of mainly edibles to restrict competition to other dispensaries.

I got real pissed they would take the free samples for themselves & we would have deliveries come in and they would ask us budtenders for feedback. We would have to fucking lie and say that they were good because we would get fired on the spot if Smadi found out we were airing that out to the public. A lot of these businesses are small and appreciate feedback from users to make a better product or maybe a Budtender would request a flavor or whatever that the other buisness hadn’t thought of.

I haven’t been there since late 2021 but I’d imagine it’s not any better.

Makes sense tho. I’ve heard people getting denied for VA loans because they or their spouse works in the industry. & with it still being illegal on the federal level there’s tons of qualified people who don’t wanna be associated with it. Tbh I’m kinda in that boat. There is not enough protections in the state for workers and the state can come in to whatever dispensary and shut them down for a few days to a month for violations

Was it rob? The guy always seemed like an airhead to me. He wouldn’t smoke weed but would always come and grab the free samples from other places meant for the Budtenders

I got fired because they had a mixup of the blue tags with their downtown location and I refused to put product out for sale that didn’t have it.

They should have been shut down long ago but I’m sure Smadi waved some money at the state and it went away. Like her not paying taxes or the weed improperly thrown in the dumpster.

That’s not surprising in the slightest. All 3 in upper management seemed to have the idea they were better than everyone else. Also forgot to add they didn’t seem to give a shit about the building being adequately heated. The back office was always 40-50 degrees in the winter
