Marijuana is not bad

First off, let me state this fact. I've been smoking pot every day for the past 3 years now. Sometimes like 15+ bowls a day. Lately it hasn't been as much, but I'm still a daily smoker.

That said, let me tell you my life for the past 10 months.

10 months ago, I was living at my mom's house on a farm milking cows for a job. One day, I got really really tired of doing that, cause it really really sucks, so I got the motivation and decided to get a real job. I went into town, and drove around. I drove past a pizza place, I thought to myself; "a pizza place? yea, i guess i can make pizzas, that'd be a cool job". So I went inside and asked for an application, the manager said wait around 2 minutes and he'll give me an interview. 2 minutes later he hires me on the spot as a dishwasher/deliviry driver. I know most people think its a shitty job, but its 1000x better than milking cows. Anyways, about 5 months later I did some yard work for the owner of the store, thats when he saw that I was a really hard worker. He comes in the next day and says "hey, you want another job?" "ummm, suure..." i reply. So as it turns out, he got me a job at a health club. My job is i sit there for 5-8 hours saying hello and goodbye to people. It's really boring, but it's easy and it pays ok.

About 3 months ago, at the pizza place, the manager got tired of working there and quit. So the owner approaches me and offers me the position. I accept. So now I'm the manager of a pizza restaurant. And I'm doing a good job at it.

I still work at the health club a couple days a week. And what do you know, the manager is quitting and I've been offered the position. So now I'm the manager of a health club too. And I'm doing a good job at it too.

In summary, I'm 19 years old, I manage 2 businesses, I smoke weed every day, and I'm making about $55,000/year. I didn't write this to gloat or anything, I just wrote it because like, you can still do good in life if you smoke weed. All it takes is hard work and determination.

Smoke on

Amazingly refreshing story. I bet it was a lot better than milking cows, but why did the manager choose you, over other employees? Maybe there were none.

well, the health club doesn't require me to be there very much, its just a bunch of database entry and filing and shit. the pizza place takes a lot of my time, im needed a lot for the lack of customer service our employees have, also inventory is a bitch. both jobs combined, its like 60-70 hours a week.

Haha, aw man. I just read your awesome story and was thinking... that's pretty cool. Then I realized you live in FoCo... which is why I recognized your user name. But you wouldn't be speaking of pizza casbah would you? i may be a little off... but that'd be kind of cool. whatever the hell you're doing in FoCo that's badass and idk what you have against working at a farm though... all the farms where are pretty chill as hell. but then again i've never made a job of milking so i wouldnt know.
