Like, wow, Let's Have A Union

Post by Col Hogan »

Pot-Club workers in Oakland CA have voted to, like, join a union...
Local 5 of the United Food and Commercial Workers has announced that about 100 employees of Oaksterdam University — "Quality Training for the Cannabis Industry" — and two subsidiaries have voted "to enhance job security and gain a clearer voice on the job." One new job classification being negotiated: "bud tender," which the San Francisco Chronicle describes as "a sommelier of sorts who helps medical marijuana users choose the right strain for their ailment."

The union plans to organize other pot-clubs around the state....once the buzz wears off... 8-)
