I wake up every morning with the comforting anticipation of an invigorating day ahead. As an employee at MMD Shops in Hollywood, each day is unique and allows me to engage with an incredibly diverse clientele. My job at a high-end cannabis dispensary is an amazing roller coaster ride, peppered with momentous interactions and rewarding experiences.
My Morning: From Bud to Rhizome
I start my day by arriving at our shop, located in the heart of Hollywood, California. I am always greeted by the alluring scent of various strains of cannabis, some tangy, some earthy, but all very pleasant. Our shop, established in 2006, serves a vibrant local community with more than a decade of collective cannabis experience.
Customer inquiries range from the medical benefits of cannabis to finding the right strain for a first-time user. I find immense satisfaction in clearing up misconceptions and enlightening customers about the myriad potential benefits cannabis can bring to their lives. It’s fulfilling to see the way their faces light up when they discover how this plant could possibly make their life better.
Noon: Thriving in the Hollywood Hustle
By midday, the store gets busier. Catering to customers from not only Hollywood but also Beverly Hills, Los Angeles and nearby areas, our dispensary sees an influx of diverse individuals — all looking to explore the wonderful world of cannabis.
Our job as MMD employees is to push our service beyond just providing a ‘dispensary near me’ experience. We aim to curate custom experiences that cater to each individual’s needs and preferences. Every suggestion we make comes from a place of deep experience, knowledge and empathy – a testament to the care and dedication we devote to our clientele.
Evening: Wrapping up a Successful Day
As evening falls, a sense of satisfaction engulfs the store. We take pride in knowing we are not only meeting our customers’ needs but also contributing to the advancement of the cannabis industry. After a rewarding day, there’s nothing like closing up shop, knowing we’ve made a difference in people’s lives over the course of the day.
Working at one of the most significant dispensaries in Hollywood, CA, LA, and Beverly Hills, CA keeps me on my toes but also fills my day with a sense of purpose and gratification. Navigating the vast and complex world of marijuana isn’t always an easy road, but witnessing the positive impact it brings to our customers’ lives makes every moment worth it.
