The cannabis dispensary was really high-priced.

I thought that since your medical insurance did not cover medical marijuana, it should be less expensive, but I was wrong. Not only is it expensive, but you could buy the same stuff on the street, for less money. The government was making a lot of money by selling medical marijuana in a dispensary. I told my mom how expensive the medical marijuana was, but she already knew. I told her the government should allow it to be sold in convenience stores, like they sell beer and liquor, but they couldn’t keep track of it as closely. There was always going to be someone with their hand in a pocket getting their part of the money from the medical marijuana. Not that I didn’t think people should not use medical marijuana. I had seen what it could do for friends and family. My uncle was going through chemotherapy and that was making feel worse than the cancer itself. He was weak and vomiting all the time. The medical marijuana eased his nausea and helped him to keep going. His immune system was shot, and he had to wear a mask all the time, but he was feeling good and he gained a couple of pounds. When I saw him when he first started chemo, he looked like half of himself. He is now smiling and feeling much better. He said he thinks medical marijuana should be a regular medicine added to every cancer patient’s daily routine. It helped the mental and physical side of the disease. In his case, medical marijuana was doing everything it should be doing..

I was ashamed of my mother for using marijuana.

When I looked down, I asked if this was because of the medical marijuana

I hated to admit to myself, let alone anyone else, but I was ashamed of my mother for using marijuana. All my life I had grown up listening to my mom tell us drugs aren’t good for you. She told us that marijuana could alter your mood and make you crazy. She talked about her brother and how he would get mean and start thinking everyone was against him. When I found out my mom was using medical marijuana for her arthritis, I was angry. She was a hypocrite for pushing the idea of how bad it was for us, but it was okay for her to use marijuana. I thought she should learn to deal with her pain and not use anything other than aspirin or acetaminophen. I didn’t care that it was causing bleeding ulcers or making her sick. It was over-the-counter, and it wouldn’t make her high. I avoided my mom for several months, but she was at the family gathering last month. It was the first time I had seen without her walker or wheelchair. She was laughing at something one of my brother’s sons had said, and she bent down to give him a hug. She wasn’t glassy eyed or acting overly anxious, or laughing too much. She was the mom I remembered her being when I was a kid. I walked up to her and gave her a hug. She cried and asked if I was still angry with her. When I looked down, I asked if this was because of the medical marijuana. She said she couldn’t walk without it. She still had a cane, but she was walking and with the family again. I was ashamed of myself for thinking the worst about my mom.

I haven’t smoked marijuana in years

I was floored by the vast array of cannabis products they had for sale.

I had never been to Oregon before, but I found the state to be beautiful to look at. There is a very chill vibe in that part of the country. I was on the coast for a week, as a consultant to a new branch the company had just opened. I am a “fixer” helping the new shops get established and ready to handle a high volume of sales. While I was there, I decided to live out a dream and indulge in recreational cannabis. Where I come from marjuana is still illegal, making it one of the few places in America where there is no form of legal weed. I haven’t smoked cannabis in years, but lately I had been missing it, so I wanted to have some fun while I was on this work trip. This was my first trip inside a real cannabis dispensary, because they didn’t exist back in the old days. I was floored by the vast array of cannabis products they had for sale. I don’t just mean different strains of sativa and indica, which I expected, but all the other variations on weed! There are cannabis edibles, pills, drinks, oils, waxes, vape products, and things I can’t even identify! I spent a long while looking around, but ultimately I went to the counter and bought a fat sack of cannabis sativa. I wanted to relive my glory days, and the best way to do that was to twist up a few joints of good, old-fashioned marijuana. I got my work done, but importantly I had an amazing experience.

We disagreed on the subject of marijuana legalization

I do not smoke legal medical cannabis, because the government in this state is very strict.

If I had the money, I would gladly move somewhere else, but that simply is not an option.

Besides, just because weed isn’t legal doesn’t mean it isn’t readily available. In the old days they called it “the war on drugs” but the government lost that war. People like drugs, and are willing to spend money on them, so they will be available no matter what the law says. This is capitalism in action, right? I would like it if there were a legal cannabis dispensary, just for the sake of convenience, but if I have to keep buying from Jimbo, then so be it. Jimbo and I used to go to high school together, way back in the old days, and he was a cannabis dealer then, as well. People used to say that Jimbo had no future because all he cared about was marijuana. The joke is on them, because I still know most of those nay-sayers, and Jimbo makes a lot more money selling marijuana than they do at their square jobs. I am a car mechanic, and I make decent money, but if I had it to do over again I would start selling marijuana like Jimbo! He told me the other day that he always votes against the legalization of marijuana. Jimbo thinks that if there are legal recreational cannabis dispensaries then he will make a lot less money. I see his point, but I will still keep voting to legalize cannabis any chance I get.

Colorful stickers for the cannabis bins

It was my idea to come up with customized stickers for our weed containers.

I work in the dispensary, one of seven different establishments in the city.

One thing that has proven difficult is to make our products stand out from the others. If I am being honest, all of the local cannabis dispensaries are very similar – they sell similar products at similar prices, and all have the same hours of operation. Because of this, it’s difficult to make our shop stand apart from the rest. That’s why I thought that adorning our marijuana containers with custom-drawn artwork would be a small thing that could yield big results. We have a couple of different artists on staff, because this is a cannabis dispensary and it seems that every dispensary has a few artists on staff. Artists love weed and hate having jobs, so the cannabis dispensary is like a magnet to them! It was easy to convince both of these people to work up some sketches we could turn into stickers to put on all our cannabis containers. We don’t use ziplock bags, of course, we are not the high school marijuana dealer. We mostly use plastic jars, which can hold up to an ounce, so it is a perfect surface for a colorful sticker, depicting our store logo on a marijuana leaf. With the right sticker, every one of the hundreds of cannabis containers we distribute every week will become little advertisements! We will also give out free stickers to any customer of the cannabis dispensary who wants one for their car
