Meet the new boss, same as the outdated boss.
Those are song lyrics by the Who, as well as to be honorableI never knew what that was supposed to mean until recently, but for the last many months a man named Carl has been the manager of our cannabis dispensary.
Carl was not popular with the staff for many reasons, however mostly because he was strict about the rules as well as regulations, he had the precision as well as bearing of a military man, which was not a great mindset to have while managing a cannabis dispensary. Cannabis users tend to be a little slow on the uptake, so yelling at them doesn’t motivate them it scares them. Cannabis users need to be guided gently if you want to get the maximum results from them. This is what Carl never understood, because he treated the staff like they were soldiers, when in fact all of them are blazed on cannabis virtually all the time; Not me, of course, I rarely get stoned before I come to work, as well as I never get stoned while at the cannabis dispensary. Since I do smoke a lot of cannabis outside of work, I am genuinely fantastic at working with stoned people, as well as being able to keep them focused on work. I will not miss Carl, as well as I recognize I can do a much better job managing the cannabis dispensary than he ever did. Getting our stoned cannabis dispensary employees to do their jobs is akin to herding cats, however luckily I suppose I’m pretty darned fantastic at herding cats!
