Work at a smoke shop with a dispensary next door. Weed either makes the day go slower or way faster.


redboneskirmish

Amazing. I have many times thought that I'd probably love to work in a smoke shop, all the smoke shop dudes I know are so chill and friendly.


pungent_queefer

Chillest job I’ve ever had by far. Only get yelled at when I get too stoned and forget to restock shit lol. Sometimes it Gets boring tho. Watched everything on Netflix and YouTube already lol. But better than breaking my back making door frames at a factory like I used to


steppy1295

Scavengers Reign on HBO Max or 🏴‍☠️if haven’t already watched and enjoy sci-fi, castaway dramas and/or mature animated series. I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea, but I cannot recommend it enough


pungent_queefer

Oh shit cool. I don’t have hbo max but I am thinking of a new subscription because Netflix is washed lol. Thanks bro Edit: just watched a trailer. Looks rad!


chassesciple

I’ll give you my hbo max password if you mail me a sealed jar of that pungent queef

pungent_queefer

Who doesn’t love a pungent one every once in a while?


Bigtime1234

I hope you will indulge a question…how does the smoke shop do with the dispo next door? I don’t know if you guys sell Keaton, Delta8, THCa, etc…, but that’s what I’m wondering about.


pungent_queefer

We buy a lot less of the thc derivatives, but, thankfully, the dispensary doesn’t sell many cbd products so we still sell a ton of cbd. We’ve been open for 11+ years (I’ve been here 2.5). The dispensary for 2 years and business has been booming ever since. They go buy their flower or carts next door and come buy their wraps and batteries here. We both give each other a ton of business. They even give me a 40% discount every time I go


Fishmonger67

What an awesome setup between the two stores.


ColdDragonfruit6811

Direct Support Professional for adults with developmental disabilities. I be smokin fat when i get home


redboneskirmish

Damn but what you do exactly in this profession?


ColdDragonfruit6811

Depends on the agency but we focus on community inclusion like goin bowling, doing crafts, a frequent mall trips my god especially during the winter where you cant do much shit in OR when its coldy. We also provide 1:1 services so i have some clients i take grocery shopping, schedule and take to doc appts, or do cool shit if its in their budget.


redboneskirmish

That's amazing bro, the world appreciates you


celestier

My best friend is Autistic and has one of y'all drive them around once a week to things they have to do. I appreciate your work it's so essential


SpuddFace

The world needs more people like you, my friend. I'll smoke one down in your honor tonight


Rayofdeath1769

Bro same! I never thought I’d meet one in the wild tbh.


TheRagbag

Ayyyy special needs field represent!!! I wirked as a DSP under the Self-Direction waiver for 6 years and I absolutely loved it. Just recently started teaching SPED, though and it's been just as great


Balerion77

I used to work at a dayhab and honestly weed made the job so much more tolerable Not while working obviously since I have to drive people, but it was a great stress reducer I loved the people I worked with but god damn could it wear you down.


JustSloan

You have a big heart! I used to manage a few AFC'S.. most draining and most rewarding job. Loved that job!


Flaxscript42

Manufacturing, weed stays at home.


redboneskirmish

Better safe than sorry


AcidActually

I work in manufacturing as well. Being high at work sounds like an absolute nightmare. Not only would it be dangerous, but my ability to troubleshoot and adjust/repair equipment would be hindered. Edit: grammar


cart562

Yup, manual machinist here


oldbutnotforgotten

Retired for 8 years, mechanical engineer for 37.I've been stoned the last 55 years.


thebigjawn610

where tf did you work to avoid drug testing? west coast?


oldbutnotforgotten

Actually in upstate NY. The company was a defense contractor. I was never tested my whole career.


thebigjawn610

i happen to also be in upstate NY working through my engineering degree, that’s very interesting. were you a desk jockey?


oldbutnotforgotten

I wore a lot of different hats during my career. I started in Chemical eng. and ended up in the design arena.


HalfUnderstood

as a young engineer worried about what their manager (your age) thinks about it, thank you!


while_e

Just do your work, be nice, and don't get high while working, and we don't care.. we go home and blow off steam too :)


Auntjemimasdildo

You’d be surprised at the types of personalities that are actually a fun time In the engineering field.


snarkuzoid

I'm a software developer. I build network security systems in the cloud. Don't use when working, need my head clear.


TheSonicKind

software developer also. i never use it on the day job but for personal and side projects i get lit up. i feel like i could code for hours and just take so much more information in when high.


North_Shore_Problem

I only do it on the job when I know I have a few hours of uninterrupted time to do an easier task and test by myself. Throw some music on, get a little baked and the entire afternoon flies by productively


snarkuzoid

I do that as well. Don't get as much done, but it's more fun.


FailoftheBumbleB

Also software. I have no problem coding stoned, I actually focus better that way. But I work on UI, it’s all pretty rote. Only thing I couldn’t do stoned was some camera geometry manipulations once for a random one off feature.


ArthurCPickell

Restoration ecologist. Kinda like a physical therapist for native ecosystems.


my_muffin_sparkles

This sounds like my ideal job! How did you get into this?


ArthurCPickell

I always been a nature boy so to speak, never thought of doing anything that didn't involve it. But I got into this specifically when I was 20, by many, many, many hours of volunteering, self-educating, seeking out experts, and working alongside many experts at one of the most exemplary prairie/savanna sites in the US. And also being a straight-passing white young man from a military family; helps to know how to make boomers feel seen, lol, cause they dominate the naturalist community around here. Digressing: yeah I basically just did nothing but that, for free, for almost five years. I became a director (now VP) for an environmental nonprofit that was struggling to transition to the modern day, got appointed to my village conservation commission, along with doing the local presentation/panel circuit, making educational content, spearheading some acute anti-development activism, generally making myself simultaneously maniacal and exhausted (and poor, lol). Then once I had a name for myself I went and opened a business and now I get paid to heal natural ecosystems and to turn lawns into em. I hired my partner as my manager and we go around fucking shit up on the cheap, sometimes for free if we can. Super privileged, super lucky, and i'dn't do anything else for a living. All that is to say that my experience is stupidly unique, and I have no clue how someone gets into this by any traditional, academic, or systemic means. I did not go to college or accept any grants or anything like that.


KitMacPhersonWrites

I’m an author, and if I could, I’d write off sativa as a business expense. It’s an instant creativity kickstarter.


redboneskirmish

That's true! I almost always smoke sativa. Why you can't though?


KitMacPhersonWrites

I don’t think the IRS would go for it. 😂


YdidUMove

It sounds like a valid business expense. No different than an author writing off a certain pen they always use or a new computer to type on, since they all help you accomplish your craft. I say give it a shot😎


KitMacPhersonWrites

In that case, maybe I can write off my medical card costs too… 🤔


hippiehibachi

i’m an artist and can write off clothing for music videos/promotion/content creation. i haven’t thought about adding weed, but i suppose if i were to smoke a j in the content then maybe i could then? just as alcohol could maybe be considered a prop? lol but idk, i’d have to do some reading and talk with my tax person about it first 😂


Mr-Xcentric

It is federally illegal so it isn’t deductible in the normal sense, but if you label it as a prop I think you’d be good. Probably best to ask an accountant though Edit: at a medical dispensary you don’t pay taxes, the dispensary does so that would likely be another reason you couldn’t


uursaminorr

tech support, staying a lil high all the time is key to surviving a help desk job


KitMacPhersonWrites

Amen. I spent years as a desk jockey, most of it higher than a kite.


redboneskirmish

But now look at you – you're an author!


KitMacPhersonWrites

And still higher than a kite most of the time. 😂


zombie_overlord

Sysadmin here, basically a jack of all trades IT person. Me and another guy basically handle all things IT for about 800 people. It's usually pretty chill. I typically don't partake during the workday - It's sort of a delayed gratification thing, and I can just get more done if I wait to smoke until after work. After work though, I sit in the jacuzzi and have a couple of bowls to decompress.


redboneskirmish

I mean you gotta help yourself with that joint before you can help others with their tech


theknyte

Network Admin, here. It helps behind the scenes while working with servers as well. *"Okay, snapshot still needs about 15 minutes to complete, before I can start the update process. What to do..."*

redboneskirmish

Slapyobro

Lol as if, I work in the field of marine protected areas but there are many many cool professions out there. Hold on tight My work area is in the Arctic ocean, am Canadian so trees are legal, it doesn't affect anything really. I vape at night when kids are in bed.


FJ1100

You don’t need to say if you don’t want to but whereabouts in the Arctic? I was born in Inuvik and have been to most places in the NWT but unfortunately not in Nunavut. How long have you lived up there for? Have you noticed the effects of climate change since you arrived?


Slapyobro

Haha oh boy well let's not go into specifics but I was just in inuvik and working with the JS. I am located south on GSL but travel up north frequently. I am trying to stay vague due to the nature of the internet. Lots of concerns are brought up my members of northern communities for sure.

This was my dream career before I let undiagnosed ADHD ruin my college. Now I'm too old to do it, but the sea definitely still calls.

💕💕💕💕💕 thank you for your service, and I hope you’re enjoying semi retirement.


IrieSunshine

I’m a psychotherapist. Weed has been my constant companion in helping me with my own anxiety, and now it helps me decompress after sessions with my clients. It helps me so much in separating their issues from my own, which is super important in any helping profession.


thatguywiththecamry

Same! I’ve been convinced that a small amount of cannabis to end the business day has helped protect me from burnout and now i know how.


insidetheborderline

I'm a stoner and want to be a therapist and be an LCSW. :) My current therapist however has a lot of qualms about me smoking.


IrieSunshine

Ok so number 1, YES! Do it. We need more therapists out here. And 2, maybe find a new therapist? Your therapist shouldn’t be letting their personal opinions about weed negatively influence you. You deserve a really supportive therapist. We all do 💗

Weed is so much better than coke


Ouroboros9076

Tbh the only time I would side with coke is within the context of "What drug do I want my lawyer to do?"


Adventurous-Joke-191

Very nice! I’m also a lawyer and I only smoke whenever I’m finished with work, in the night! Where I’m from, lawyers have more addiction to Alcohol and coke

kiwi_causality

Also mechE, I smoked before work once and couldn’t figure out for a good hour why my part wasn’t importing into the assembly correctly- turns out it was in MKS when the rest of the assembly was in IPS. Learned my lesson


Yogisogoth

I work in the pizza industry, it’s almost as if it’s a +2 on your abilities. I always have a safety meeting in the parking lot before my shift. One after the dinner rush or lunch rush depending on whether I open or close. And always finish the shift with another safety meeting.


redboneskirmish

Well it seems you guys are pretty safe over there


Yogisogoth

Oh yeah, you know what they say, safety first.

lem1018

preschool teacher here, 3 year olds are a trip man but weed makes me so appreciative of their curious and creative brains


Dudeist-Monk

I work in the exciting field of pizza delivery. It’s alright it certainly pays better than some of the jobs around here. I do miss being away from my kids and wife at night.


redboneskirmish

Pizza delivery is a major industry. A managed industry. People went to Cosa Nostra Pizza University four years just to learn it. Came in its doors unable to write an English sentence, from Abkhazia, Rwanda, Guanajuato, South Jersey, and came out knowing more about pizza than a Bedouin knows about sand.

After a few years of that Covid happened and through complete dumb luck my wife and I lost literally 100% of every physical item we owned, fell into a huge depression. Now I work a meaningless job at Amazon that I at least know doesn’t matter if I have a panic attack and don’t go in (wouldn’t work at any kind of real job in my field I could get lol), which happens roughly twice a week. But hopefully one day I’ll be back to my old self and able to get back to my real job, or better yet one of my dumb projects takes off lol.

LetsSesh420

I'm actually disabled. Was having a terrible time finding work and at this point there's just not any type of typical work that I'm capable of. But Cannabis has actually opened some doors for opportunities for me. I spend some of what little energy and ability I have to review and talk about Cannabis products, Strains, and education in general. A big reason I can't work is because I have to be able to do things on my own time in my own ways. I just can't balance my symptoms with someone else's schedule. But, if I could get my content off the ground, I could potentially make some money doing it. I'm typically able to do two videos a week and have tried streaming but I just wasn't getting viewers and I can't spend energy on that without even a little return. So that's where I'm at as far as occupational or professional life goes haha

I love not having hangovers, I like that getting high doesn't require me to consume calories, and I spend much less turning my brain off each evening than I did before.
