Social distancing isn’t enough for the cannabis dispensaries, I want contact free delivery
Even before the worry of catching a life debilitating infectious disease, I loathed the experience of going to my only local cannabis dispensary.
You can make an online order as well as still be forced to rest in a waiting room full of people for an hour or longer depending on what afternoon of the month you go.
And if that wasn’t awful enough, you have to listen to multiple odd conversations at full volume all going on at the exact same time. I try to work on my cellphone when I have to wait, but unless I bring headphones with me, I can’t block out the noise as well as the distraction it creates. When the pandemic started to sweep the nation as well as the rest of the world at large, this recognizable legal cannabis dispensary started to implement social distancing rules. Within the course of a few afternoons they went from having people rest in chairs more than five feet apart to having all the people wait in their cars until each a batch of multiple to multiple individual orders were ready. The problem with this approach is that it still forces you to enter the dispensary with 3 other patients at a time since they try to process around 3 orders at a time. A competing dispensary is offering full contact free delivery if you spend money ahead of time with a debit card. You make your order, the cannabis dispensary calls you to confirm a payment method, as well as then when you arrive you drive up to a door where an employee hands you your products through your driver’s side window. It means not having to risk even going into the dispensary with other people at the same time, especially since many of these locales know care about cramped nurses offices to begin with.
