That’s probably why they charge $30-$50 for a gram of stuff in the local pot shops. On the streets you could get it for a lot less. Not that I would know I don’t smoke it. But I’ve been around, been inside some shops, and hear things. They also have to regulate it and tax the heck out of it of course. For something that grows as easily as parsley.

Per usual, the grievance crowd setting up the supposedly disadvantaged group to be in a tougher position than if they hadn’t made a wacko claim.

This is the sort of thing that boomerangs on women by scaring employers and managers away from such hassles.

i have two renters who are state of Florida employees. both have said they will not return to their offices. if forced, they will resign. They have been working from home now for a year and do not see the need to fight the traffic and work in their cramped little cubes. Apparently, their work is okay as the state has bought one of them a fair sized out building to use as an office. (Neither one needs the money as their husbands work.) I suspect that getting people to come into a building every day when they worked just fine from home will be challenging. Or, impossible. The huge buildings the state bought will probably go mostly unfilled. The same is true for companies. Especially those in crowded, dangerous cities. I read that buildings in downtown NY city are largely empty and several big firms have announced they are not returning to them. What do you do with a skyscraper that’s mostly empty of renters? Vertical farming?

It won't be very long before many of the work from home people begin to realize that their work that can be done from their home often times can be done from a home in Bangalore.

They got sick at work before from other people.

They got sick fromt heir kids before.

They got sick from spouses before.

They got sick doing normal things before.

This is something that over 99.99% of people will successfully fight off.

This is becoming the univrrsal excuse to not work. But still expect to be paid.

All women like being paid for doing nothing.

Too many men now imitate them as well. I blame mother-only households for them picking up the behavior.

In addition to perks, which constitute 10-20% of pay, consideration of professional dress, commute, and other personal expenditures necessary for the job and its physical location are also factored into salary. In some paychecks that consideration is about 20-30% of pay. (this is why a small branch office pays less than the downtown office).

If people insist on working from home, their salary range should be adjusted down accordingly.

Every person who refuses to return to work should be fired immediately AND have the last year of salary + benefits clawed back.

There’s one (1) Medical Marijuana shop here in York - a drive-thru - and the line is 30-50 cars long, all day, every day, except Sunday. It’s a converted bank w/ drive-thru. Never been there. Last time I had a toke was in the early 90s.

Did the article mention what she did for childcare prior to the shutdown?

In the 1990s when they had medical marijuana in California, the places all had to be built like banks because they dealt only in cash and couldn’t open bank accounts or take credit cards. They didn’t have drive-through windows but they had multiple steel doors and armed guards and bulletproof glass and large vaults - the works. I lived in the flats a few blocks from one place, located next to a coffee bean I would walk to in the mornings so I got to know the owner a little bit. It was rather intimidating to me, but didn’t seem to slow anybody down. Anybody could get a MMJ card with a quick visit to a special doctor (and the places were happy to refer you to such a doctor). MMJ cured any ailment even ones the doctors couldn’t (and wouldn’t bother) diagnosing “I have migraines” or “PM cramps” or “athletes foot”. Most of the legal shops are built that way too, but look like Apple stores in the front room retail area. One on display, inventory in the back room behind a wall and a small window to pass it through.

Nowawadays MMJ is legal still, but there are hardly any shops that service those who may really need it like cancer or aids patients. It’s all now like going to The Gap or something. I find it absurd but mostly I despise the idea of government taxing people’s self-destruction.

That’s what we have here, a MMJ Boutique, but since the advent of Wuhan Red Chinese CCP Virus, it’s only a drive-thru.
