I've spent enough of my post highschool, pre uni time travelling and bumming around, now it's time to stop living off of grass and the drippings from the ceiling, and get myself a job cuz i wanna buy weed in bulk. :thumbsup: I've worked in hospitality for years and recently worked at a Market Research Company which was my first "office" type job.

So what's a good job for a stoner, with responsibilities a stoned individual can handle?

note: Mary Jane is a part of my life now, i will do whatever it takes to work around her, Mary Jane isn't going anywhere, do you hear me? i love her okay? and she loves me too, you just dont' understand what we have, you could never understand! we're getting married,a nd you're not invited to the wedding. i'm sorry, but i can't have you there. i've never been so in love before.

The pay is shit, but working at a video rental place was about the funnest place I ever worked. It's chill as hell, the work is super-easy, and I got two free rentals every night.

My friend told me about this one, sounds awesome because you can easily get into it and pays OK if you wanna work part-time or something.

The pizza man! I never thought of it myself, but he said he used his own car so he could go smoke out on his way to the house, and I'm not sure if he was lying or something but I guess he said if someone orders a pizza and they don't answer the door you're supposed to throw it away, so he'd have his friends order a pizza and then say they wouldn't answer or pay or something and then he could eat the pizza himself when he got the munchies. You get tips too which is cool if you like getting paid in cash.

it's the CV. that's where i always get pinned. i mean i know i'm capable of doing any job, but why must i write down my past when it shoudln't have any bearing on my future? okay, i know, that's just shit talk for a guy who's been fired a couple times. but just for the record, i've never lost a job that i didn't want to lose.

the video store sounds great though. i'm a regular at my video rental joint so they know my face, and how friendly i can be... i'll definitely check this option out.

i worked at subway which was pretty fun, i never smoked before work coz it would be impossible for me to make all those sandwhiches stoned, but after i closed up the shop id get high make a couple of take home sandwhiches, eat one, thne clean up and go home.....

a mate of mine used to work at a dominos pizza in tel aviv, he says him and his mates used to make pot pizzas after they closed shop, he trued making one at my place but didnt work out too well.....

another good job would be to work at "Suga" dont know if u guys have that shop in the states but its basically an aussie store where they make their own candy right in front of you and you can buy it, they have a wide variety of flavors and can even custom make candies with messages like "happy Bday Ben", this would be an ideal job coz im sure someone whos been working there a while can find a way to sneak weed in the recipe, then all hes gotta do is buy a half, make a fat batch of candy after closing and you could sell it to mates, would be a good way to earn extra pocket money

Man, I worked at Subway for a while too. At first it was alright, 'cause my manager was really cool, she didn't give a shit if we smoked on the job as long as we did our job and did it right. But then the management changed and that shit started to suck hard after a while, prolly 'cause we were understaffed, and coming home smelling like fucking sandwiches every night... ugh. No thanks.

hey tokin, where bouts in aus u from?

where buying in bulk is concerned, it is goof, ive been able to ge 7 for $50, which im still amazed about coz it was not long ago i was buying 3 for $50, though if u live alone, as i hope to some day soon, id suggest growing your own, that way u dont have to work too hard to raise money for it......

if ure based in melb, i know 2 subways which are accepting applications, one of them the boss is a complete son of a bitch asshole, and youll need to be prepared for transexual hookers and drug addicts (i got plenty of colorfull subway stories to tell about that), the second shop better boss, better location, no pimps to slap u (okay..... pimp slap never happened to me, but the pimps do stare at me in a threatening way when i made sandwhiches for the hookers..... freaky) and the boss at the second subway is a great guy, online downside is that they are very anal about everything especially cleaning..... i was fired coz they say i didnt clean well enough even though i stayed back a couple hoursa (sometimes as late as 2 in the AM to clean spotlessly....

There were nights when I was cleaning up our subway until 2AM... we only had 2 people staffed and we had a line of people all the way out the door for most of the day, so we had no prep done, no bread pulled, no dishes washed... nothing... and we got bitched out for staying on until 2AM even though there were only two of us on. 6_9 God that place sucked.

yeah, my educational history is standard fare too. finished high school, started uni but deferred cuz i was too lazy to rock up. but my work history is like a fucking goldmine, a goldmine i can't be arsed to write down. i mean, writing a cv is hard work, you have to track down the best referrals on there which is one of the most painful things to do. and my memory blows and i dont' keep record of where i've been nor do i keep my pay slips, they just disappear.

i've worked at some of the busiest joints n town. i've got experience like no other fucker i know. but i'm so damn lazy i can't even be arsed to write that shit down on a proper cv.

haha, during the summer i work at a beach...probably one of the most chill jobs...walk around barefoot, be really blazed, talk to friendly heads, and yell at tourists to not park in the locals parking lot...man that was fun, not to mention i stole probably 10 bucks worth of food from the store everyday:D
my boss caught on, but she got over it, cause everyone liked me, probably cause i was so blazed
i think pizza work, or video rentals would be dope, maybe a family-owned food place, or a smoke shop would be fun

Hey dude, i'm from melbourne too. thanks heaps for the subway offer, but hospitality is something i want a break from. although i'm curious to know which subways you're talking about, sounds like a lotta shit goes down at those 2 joints, in st kilda perhaps?

and whats this about 7 for 50? thats bloody unreal. i'm paying through the roof. 3 for 45. i'm fairly new to weed, so i'm just assuming i'm not getting ripped off... DAMMIT!

Hey Tokin...
I've got a perfect job for you where you can go right ahead, be a stoner, have fun...

2 words: SKI RESORT.

You have experience in hospitality? You like cool people? You can deal with rich assholes on vaca? Mmm hmmm...

Plus most ski resorts are starting to go year-round with golf academies and such.

I met my BF of 2 years while he was working at a ski resort. His boss was their dealer, lol. They would all get baked and ride around on sleds and look at the stars.

Plus it comes with free lift tix and all the ladies who ski are lovely and have that healthy glow, ya know?

I figured out the BEST one the other day at the mall. You know those pictures that are lit from behind, of waterfalls and scenic places etc? The booth at the mall is a darkened area with just tons of these moving/backlit pictures in it. The employee gets to sit behind a desk and just read or stare at the pictures or whatever, and help customers, and that's it. I thought, man, if I was willing to work for that low of a wage, that would be WAY fun while stoned.

dude, u were spot on, st kilda is the first subway i worked at (the one with hookers and girls OD-ing in the shop) NEVER eat there, planning on going there one day and sticking a sign on the window saying "Subway, now cockroach Free....... we hope", that place is a shit hole and i myself never ate there,

the second subway i worked at was Highett, if youre familiar with southland shopping centre, its in a petrol station just outside, not bad there, i really did enjoy working there and didnt mind staying back bymyself to do all that cleaning that late, but my best wasnt good enough for them so they let me go.... was pissed coz the pay there is great, if u work on a public holiday u stand to make about $35 an hour

yeah 7 for $50 is great, only prob is the guy is very unreliable, tuesday i called him up at 1pm, told him i needed 14 by 8:30 that night, if he couldnt absolutely gurantee me 8:30 then to tell me right now and ill find someone else coz i needed it urgently, when it came 5:30, i called him every half hour to see what was happening, he kept saying im leaving soon im leaving sooon, by the end of the night he didnt even go (id have come to his but he said he was dry, he was planning on going to his suppler on the way to my place), but dont worry man u are not getting ripped off, most people buy at 3 for 45, it takes a long time before u know enough people to get any cheaper...

TokinAsianGuy
11-30-2006, 09:47 PM
well that's why i want to buy in bulk, my mate who sells to me told me that if i buy how he buys, i'll be saving some cash. we didn't get into specifics.

I've worked at Cafe Greco Crown, Campari Waterfront, Georges Longroom on Collins Street and Timeout Cafe at Fed Sq, i used to live pretty comfortably, considering i was making all that money during highschool, living with my best mate on Lygon street and then Kew and having mother pay the rent since i was only 17... and now, i'm 20, back at home in Hoppers fucking Crossing, looking for a job.

i'm gonna head down to the local video rental place later on, see if they're hiring or atleast willing to replace an employee since i'm such a charmer.

Its awsome, i sit a swivel chair for 3 hours a shift, 2 shifts a day. I get a crappy basic wage (£4.00 and hour) but the commision is AWSOME, its UN-capped earnings. If you put the effort in, then you earn the BIG money... 15 "leads/pitchs" is worth £300 and if you get more... you simply earn more, that plus your basic is a well nice wage for 6 hours a day, for WHENEVER you want to work.

My close friends have been pressuring me to get some decks for some time now after they saw me screwing around a mates place on his decks. learning how to beat match vinyl in seconds impressed them. i didn't know i was doing anything special, but some weeks later at an obscure time, a friend mentioned that my dj pal has been talking about me for awhile saying how he thinks i'm a natural. but i've seen my mate doing his sets at clubs and it's fair intense. and i don't have the funds or the motivation to pursue DJing.

i'd rather start an electro rock band instead. :thumbsup:
