I am happy to be working at a local pot farm
As my hours began to slow down at my job last month, I started to wonder if I should look for part time work.
- Despite the economic woes in the country at the moment, there are jobs in multiple sectors available in my area.
Retail locations are seriously desperate for more employees, as well as the restaurants both chain plus family owned. We managed to see some spending from the numerous COVID relief bills garner a bit of economic recovery in the area, plus without current lockdowns numerous companies were finally able to come back into business. But since numerous people have moved to working remote jobs from the safety of their bedrooms, there aren’t nearly as many who are hungry for physical in-person work. I have noticed a handful of companies raise their wages just so they will be able to compete plus acquire future workers. Since I already have a remote job, I was basically hoping to find more remote work. I figured I would be able to work for a call center while fielding calls in my office, or perhaps become a copy editor for a marketing corporation. I haven’t ever had either of those job positions previously, however I think they’re within my current skill set. For the time being, I was able to find part time work at a family farm straight down the street from my property. They grow cannabis plus need help harvesting, trimming, plus packaging marijuana so it can be shipped off to dispensaries around the entire state. Pot farming is extremely exciting, something I never thought I’d have the privilege of doing in my life. We easily wear masks so I don’t have to worry about exposure to the virus either. It’s absolutely pressing to them that none of their cannabis products are ever exposed to respiratory particles from an unknowingly infected employee. I have learned a great deal about raising marijuana from this family farm plus I am honestly thinking about staying on as a regular employee.
