I took a job delivering cannabis, because I thought it would be an simple way to make money.
I was toiling at the grocery store in the dairy department and I was making minimum wage.
I knew the tips delivering cannabis would be better, so I changed jobs! Unfortunately, the delivery zone is so sizable that I’m only cutting even at the end of the night! Last week I had to take multiple odd deliveries to the outskirts of town… One delivery took an hour and 15 minutes and I got a $5 tip. The other delivery took 50 minutes and I got a $10 tip. I spent nearly multiple hours on the road to make multiple deliveries and I made $8 an hour. Minimum wage in this state is $15 an hour, so I’m losing money by toiling as a delivery driver. The dispensary will have to change his policy and make the delivery section smaller. It’s the only way to ensure delivery times and allow all of the drivers to make money when they are scheduled. It’s easily not fair to send me out onto 1 hour long deliveries, while another guy stays in town and takes 15 items to the college for $100 in tips, then some clients complain about the long wait times as well, and a smaller delivery zone would take care of that issue as well. If we are going to advertise fast delivery services, then we are going to have to do something about the delivery complications. This is 1 way to repair the complication for good without increasing much.
