Morning Routines and Opening Procedures

The sun hasn’t quite peaked over the horizon when I arrive at Valley Wellness, Somers’ premier cannabis dispensary. Like every morning, I start by checking our security systems and preparing the display cases for another busy day of serving both medical patients and recreational customers.

Customer Care and Education

By mid-morning, our first wave of customers arrives. What I love most about working at Valley Wellness is the opportunity to educate people about cannabis. Whether it’s helping a senior citizen find the right topical for arthritis or guiding a first-time recreational user through our menu, each interaction is unique.

Our daily tasks include:

  • Verifying customer identification and medical cards
  • Maintaining precise inventory records
  • Sanitizing surfaces and display cases
  • Updating our digital menu boards
  • Answering questions about various strains and products

Afternoon Operations

The afternoon rush brings a diverse mix of customers. I spend time organizing our selection of edibles, concentrates, and flower while ensuring compliance with state regulations. Every product must be properly labeled and tracked in our system.

Evening Wind-Down

As the day comes to a close, we focus on inventory reconciliation and preparing for tomorrow. The most rewarding part of working at Valley Wellness is knowing we’re helping people find natural alternatives for their wellness journey. Whether they’re seeking relief from chronic pain or simply looking to unwind after a long day, we’re here to guide them through their cannabis experience.

Before heading home, I make one final sweep of the sales floor, ensuring everything is clean and organized for another day of serving our Somers community.

Working in this rapidly evolving industry keeps me on my toes, and no two days are quite the same at Valley Wellness. It’s more than just a job – it’s an opportunity to be part of a growing movement toward natural wellness and education.
