From Morning Dew to Evening Relaxation: A Day at Zip Cannabis
Hello everyone! I’m Maya, and I’ve been working at Zip Cannabis for just over a year now. As the sun rises over the beautiful landscapes of Southwest Michigan, my day begins with purpose and excitement. Let me take you through what a typical day looks like for me at the leading Cannabis Dispensary in Coloma and Lawrence, MI.
6:30 AM – Rise and Shine
My alarm goes off, and I’m already mentally preparing for the day ahead. Working in the cannabis industry means staying informed about products, regulations, and customer needs. I enjoy a quick breakfast while reviewing any new product information that might have come in overnight.
8:15 AM – Arriving at Zip Cannabis
I usually work at our Coloma location, though sometimes I fill in at Lawrence. Both stores embody the Zip Cannabis commitment to quality and community. As I park, I can already see some of my colleagues arriving – we’re a tight-knit team that genuinely enjoys working together.
8:30 AM – Morning Meeting
Before we open our doors, we have our daily huddle. Our manager reviews:
- New products or strains that have arrived
- Daily specials and promotions
- Any regulatory updates we need to be aware of
- Customer feedback from the previous day
This meeting sets the tone for our day and ensures we’re all aligned with our mission to provide exceptional service and products.
9:00 AM – Doors Open
With everything in place, we welcome our first customers. What I love most about my job is the diversity of people we serve. From first-time buyers curious about CBD to medical patients seeking specific strains for relief to recreational users looking for something special for the weekend – each interaction is unique.
11:30 AM – Educational Moment
One of the hallmarks of Zip Cannabis is our commitment to education. Today, a local medical professional stopped by to discuss the potential benefits of different cannabinoid profiles with our team. These educational moments help us better serve our community with knowledge and care.
1:00 PM – Lunch Break
During my break, I often take a walk around Coloma or Lawrence, depending on which location I’m at. Both communities have embraced Zip Cannabis, and it’s heartwarming to be part of that connection.
2:00 PM – Inventory Check
Accuracy in inventory management is crucial in our industry. I spend some time verifying stock levels and helping prepare reorder requests. Zip Cannabis prides itself on product variety and availability, so this task is essential to maintaining our reputation.
3:30 PM – Rush Hour
The afternoon brings our busiest time as people stop by after work. It’s fast-paced but rewarding work. Today, I helped a first-time customer navigate the difference between indica and sativa strains, and seeing their appreciation for the guidance reminds me why I love this job.
6:00 PM – Community Engagement
Zip Cannabis isn’t just a store; we’re an active community member. This evening, I spent some time organizing our upcoming contribution to the local food drive. Our company believes in giving back to the communities that support us in Coloma and Lawrence.
8:00 PM – Closing Procedures
As we prepare to close, there’s a final rush of customers. After they leave, we:
- Reconcile all transactions for the day
- Clean and organize the store
- Update our inventory system
- Prepare for the next day
9:00 PM – Reflection
As I head home, I reflect on the day. Working at Zip Cannabis isn’t just a job; it’s a chance to be part of an evolving industry that helps people in countless ways. Whether it’s the medical patient who finds relief, the anxious customer who discovers calm, or the social user who enhances their relaxation time, knowing we’ve helped improve someone’s day is deeply satisfying.
Final Thoughts
Being part of the Zip Cannabis team means embracing education, community, and quality every day. As the cannabis industry continues to grow and evolve in Michigan, I’m proud to work for a company that leads with integrity and genuine care for its customers in Coloma and Lawrence.
Until next time!
