Ray stays focused every time he looks up at the sign saying a chain is as strong as its weakest link.
This old adage keeps him motivated as he runs his cannabis dispensary shop.
Ray does not compromise when it comes to employees as he believes a weak link can bring everything down. As such, he has a way of holding all people to a high standard. This may not be everyone’s management style, but as the owner of a cannabis shop, Ray maintains a laser-focus. He doesn’t smoke the weed here but focuses on selling it. He can have some of the week over the weekend with his friends but away from the business. Don’t get high from your own products is a philosophy he has prescribed for years. It is ridiculous to assume that someone who works at a cannabis dispensary would never get stoned, and he doesn’t expect that from staff. However, he does expect them to do as he does, which is to never get high while working at the cannabis shop. He wants his team to be professional, so pretty much everyone who visits them knows they are careful about quality cannabis, as well as the quality of customer service! To ensure his budtenders are motivated to stay sober, Paul offers them a daily bonus of free cannabis. However, all they have to do is to be on time, and to stay sober all month long. He commits to giving winners $100 worth of their favorite choice of cannabis strain! This is definitely a good way to boost the morale at work and helps to keep the team strong and expectant.
