According to this article by Alexia Elejalde-Ruiz of the Chicago Tribune, plenty of pot jobs are now coming available.
There's going to be one of the marijuana cultivation centers in my wife's hometown of Delavan. We were by there earlier this week, and it's well-underway with the building up and all sorts of construction equipment visible from Route 122.
ILLINOIS MEDICAL MARIJUANA BUSINESSES ARE HIRING
I found the whole discussion about "budtender" and "budtending seminar" to be very interesting.
And this.......
"PharmaCann and several other companies emphasized that more than experience, they are seeking certain character traits: integrity, strong work ethic, reliability, organizational skills, passion for the medicinal potential of the product, and the ability to follow rules.

Whatever your stance on the medical marijuana issue, this evolving and expanding industry is bringing a slew of jobs.
And real help for hurting people.
Out for now.....
