I have an accounting degree and this looked like an excellent opportunity until I read through all of the duties and responsibilities, then I remembered why I never went into accounting after school.

[Rude]

Looks like work. I thought it was for a tester. We need u to try this white widow 10x concentrate jolly rancher and take these tickets to see (insert band here) and report on the experience tomorrow.

[Tom Banjo]

I studied finance. That looks like tedious work but one hell of an opportunity.

[GoingBackTo Where....]

Fuck the numbers.......the fun is in the grow!!!!  But the numbers are needed so you don't end up broke, funny, I am worker B......cant sit in office all day, I would go absolutely crazy, and everyone in the office would absolutely hate me by the end of the day!!!!  

 

But, it brings happiness to see this area of our economy becoming a legitimate profession for professionals!!!

[gr8fulpair]

Legalization coming to the southeast..... Hopefully soon, but inevitable. Sunny, I will hire you as my Farming Foreman.

[Rude]

Lol. Medical is still illegal most of the south. That is a precursor for any legalization. And u may be drunk bro if u think the Bible Belt will have recreational weed any time soon.

If you have aspirations of getting into the industry as it opens across the country the best advice I can give you is come to Colorado now, learn everything you can, and take the knowledge back home with you.  We're on Version 6.0 of most commercial gardens having started in 2008/09.  The level of sophistication is amazing.  I'm seeing all the license holders in Washington coming to Colorado to hire/partner with talent as they don't want to start 5 years behind.

 

If you do apply for the Dixie job please let me know.
