So this employer was the only cannabis dispensary in my small town in washington state. I was hired on as a budtender and was quickly promoted to their social media manager.
I was VERY competent at this job, this isnt a brag, i really just do my best because i always hear my mother in my ear. Had multiple top sales for the month etc. I got in close with my coworkers and everyone grew to respect the effort i out forward generally.
I was FIRED for a very stupid reason that sounded like an excuse to me, but i have opportunities so i moved on. However, my firing has resulted in a cascade of more firings, quittings, etc. I just went in their today, because they are the only option in town and learned some news.
Since my untimely firing they have lost 7 employees, some that started before and some that started after me.
When i got fired it didnt really matter to them. Because i was one guy who had been there for less than a year and they had some new people to fill the hole and some older, long term employees that were almost synonymous with the business. Who dealt with the difficult stuff that takes time to learn.
THEY ARENT THERE ANYMORE EITHER. THEY FIRED THE HUSBAND FOR SOMETHING SHADY (on the business) AND THE WIFE QUIT
Like omg i am shaking. I am honestly freaking out this is wild! I have no way to verify if i actually had an impact in any of this, but all the sign seem to point. I was let go 2 days before thanksgiving and the business has taken a heel turn since then.
