I had to go through a lot of training when I started working at the medical cannabis dispensary.
I had to attend an 8 hour training and education class on marijuana and its effects.
When this class was over, I had to take a test. If I didn’t pass the test, I wouldn’t be able to work at the medical cannabis dispensary. It was one of the most nerve-wracking experiences since my days in college. I was worried that I wouldn’t pass, but most of the information was easy to learn and easy to remember. One of the classes that I took was about customer service and one particular lesson was about spotting counterfeit bills. I listened intently when they talked about the counterfeit bills, because I was particularly interested in counterfeiting. The first time a counterfeit bill came into the store, I immediately recognized it. The customer came in to buy $200 worth of medical marijuana supplies.He had four $50 bills and they looked very strange. I was working the counter at the time. While I was feeling the dispensary order, I told my boss that I was worried the bills might be counterfeit. Even though they passed the marker test, they still felt strange in my hand. They were almost too heavy to be a $50 bill. I knew it was a long shot, but I insisted that my boss accompany me to the counter. The guy was surprised to see both of us and he made a quick excuse to go to his car. We never saw the guy again.
