Morning: Preparing for the Day
As I arrive at Tropicanna Dispensary’s storefront in Santa Ana, CA, the first order of business is to review our inventory. We pride ourselves on offering a wide selection of high-quality cannabis products to our customers throughout Orange County. After ensuring our shelves are well-stocked, I check our delivery schedule for the day.
Mid-Morning: Customer Service and Education
The dispensary opens, and we welcome our first customers. Many are regulars, but we also see new faces looking to explore the world of cannabis. As a budtender, my role is not just to sell products but to educate. Whether it’s explaining the differences between indica and sativa strains or recommending the perfect edible for a first-timer, customer education is a crucial part of our service.
Afternoon: Managing Deliveries
Tropicanna’s delivery service is a significant part of our business. We serve customers in:
- Tustin, CA
- Irvine, CA
- Orange, CA
- Costa Mesa, CA
- Fountain Valley, CA
I spend part of my afternoon coordinating with our delivery drivers, ensuring they have the right products and are following our strict safety protocols. We take pride in our efficient and discreet delivery service, which has become increasingly popular.
Late Afternoon: Community Outreach
At Tropicanna, we believe in being more than just a dispensary. We’re an active part of the community. Today, I’m working on organizing a local event to promote cannabis awareness and education. These events help us connect with our customers and contribute positively to the neighborhood.
Evening: Closing Up and Reflecting
As we approach closing time, I assist with final sales and begin the closing procedures. It’s been a busy day, but a fulfilling one. Working at Tropicanna allows me to combine my passion for cannabis with my desire to help people. Whether it’s assisting a medical marijuana patient find relief or helping a recreational user discover a new favorite product, every day brings new opportunities to make a difference.
As I lock up the store, I’m already looking forward to another day of serving the cannabis community in Santa Ana and beyond.
