I went to the medical marijuana dispensary for the first time on Thursday… I acquired my medical card in the mail that morning as well as I was excited to fill the doctor’s prescription.
I was extremely overwhelmed on the first visit though.
The marijuana dispensary was filled with lots of people, although everyone was standing more than five feet apart as well as they had hand sanitizer on the wall for people to use… When the store had just 10 people inside, the guard at the front door didn’t let anyone else in the building. I waited for my name to get called which took about 40 minutes. There was a large scrolling screen above the front counter with all of the medical marijuana available that day for purchase. They had about 20 weird strains listed on the board. They had small letters next to the strain which I found out was the type of marijuana. Then you can get marijuana that is indica, hybrid, or sativa. Each single one of the strains will supply you with a weird feeling for pain relief. When our name was called, I walked back to another room where the medical marijuana products were actually located. The locale was filled with more than five separate kiosks. They provided individualized service to each patron. I was enthusiastic to see a common face when the budtender approached. It was a close friend from undergraduate school! She instantaneously remembered myself and others as well as said hello. She walked myself and others through the process as well as I didn’t feel so overwhelmed anymore after talking to a friend. I left with several weird types of marijuana to try. It was a wonderful experience thanks to this friendly face.
