To be fair to the folks with experience though, no way in hell would I accept $20/hr in a HCOL area like LA. Better believe Iām gonna negotiate a waaay higher wage and even position after the working interview
Iām not in LA though, so this is just hypothetical.
If I had no experience at all, Iād hop on the opportunity. Itās rare that a company is willing to train. As a manager, I prefer training people with no experience as you donāt have to worry about breaking any bad habits and dealing with shit like āI ALREADY KNOW HOW TO DO THIS, IāM NOT DOING THAT!ā after making a simple suggestion.
Edit: honestly bro advertise this role on craigslist and indeed, get the newbies rolling in. I feel like newbies are rare here. I got started in this industry at a measly $12/hr as a packager, and I found the listing on craigslist. I was searching to get out of my $10/hr grocery pharm tech job. In the Boulder area of CO. (aka, HCOL area)
100%. If you have experience making hash, you shouldnāt have any days off from October-December with all this material coming in though. Hence why I havenāt posted for over a month.
@Cheebachiefextracts
Set up a couple cameras and rephrase your hiring advertisement as a āIndy film shootā and you can just work through the 500 auditions that show up
Just go to colleges and put ads up for paid internship $20/hr Cannabis Business, Laboratory Skills etc.
Gotta love all the people who post looking for work and then when its offered its not good enough.
Yeah, i was about to say, thereās a bunch of college students willing to do this to learn, and you donāt have to feel bad because they probably have a bunch of roommates ![]()
Had some kid on instagram try to school me on distillate, was telling me how heās getting a cannabis research degree or something. lol
Yeah, suckers born daily in college. Theyāll take being paid in weed still.
You add Internship + real money and youāve got a small army
Seriously, great to see people posting complaints on a job they donāt want too. CA is hurt up for motivated workers from my experience, offered someone $500 to drive out and help me harvest for one day last week and got turned down.
Hit me up im always down to work, better to make something than nothing if theres free time
If youāre looking for better, take what you can now⦠Always. Itās not hard to look for work while working with what ya got.
I specifically needed someone with a truck/suv so I could fit a freezer in the back. All done harvesting now, thank you for the offer though. Iāll make sure to keep that in mind in the future.
I woulda pulled up with this
(if anyone has one of these for the low-low please let me know, itās one of my dream trucks)
Got trailers, trucks and most tools needed for damn near anything. Yeah just putting it out there
Hell yeah, I donāt wanna crowd up cheebās post so Iāll DM ya next time!
Best of luck @Cheebachiefextracts , if you ever set up shop in Humboldt I would work with you for $20 in my off season all day. Steady work without having to worry about yields/moving the product is nothing to scoff at.
Calling it hashers anonymous. The reality.
Call me
Iām just trying to figure out my logistics on getting there without upsetting you on getting late or anything due to my current situation as mentioned in my post.
Itās many things man, thatās why I havenāt just jumped the gun and said yes.
