A Day in the Life at Triple M Dispensary
Welcome to a behind-the-scenes look at what it’s like to be part of the Triple M team! As a budtender at our dispensary, every day brings new experiences, challenges, and opportunities to help our customers find the products that best suit their needs.
Morning Routine: 8:30 AM
My day starts with arriving about 30 minutes before opening. The morning team gathers for our daily huddle where we discuss new product arrivals, promotions, and any special focus for the day. Our manager reviews yesterday’s feedback and reminds us of our commitment to patient education and exceptional service.
Opening Preparations: 9:00 AM
Before we open our doors, there’s plenty to do:
- Counting and verifying inventory
- Ensuring product displays are properly stocked and organized
- Setting up registers and checking our point-of-sale system
- Final cleaning and ensuring the dispensary floor looks impeccable
Doors Open: 10:00 AM
The morning rush typically consists of regular customers who know exactly what they want and new patients who need more guidance. This balance keeps the work interesting and rewarding. For new visitors, I take time to explain our various products, from flower to concentrates, edibles, and topicals.
Midday: 1:00 PM
Lunchtime brings a brief respite and a chance to recharge. Our break room conversations often revolve around customer interactions, product knowledge, and sometimes the latest industry news. It’s a collaborative environment where we learn from each other’s experiences.
Afternoon Shift: 2:00 PM
The afternoon often brings:
- Restocking shelves as needed
- Processing new inventory deliveries
- Participating in product knowledge sessions with vendors
- Assisting with social media content creation
Patient Consultations: Throughout the Day
The most rewarding part of my job is the one-on-one patient consultations. People come to Triple M seeking relief for various conditions, looking for alternatives to traditional medications, or simply wanting to enhance their wellness routine. Being able to guide them through their options and hear their success stories makes every day meaningful.
Closing Time: 7:00 PM
As we approach closing time, the team focuses on:
- Reconciling inventory and sales
- Cleaning all surfaces and display areas
- Preparing restock lists for the next day
- Securing all products in accordance with regulations
