Measuring Monday: High School Jobs

In January 1998, after the holidays I got my first job at my church’s Rectory, I was 14 and in 9th grade. I got the gig because at the time I was an altar server, one of the first female altar servers after a rule change in the Catholic Church thankyouverymuch. Now, I had sporadically babysat for a few years prior and continued to do so, but this was my first job on a payroll - making a whopping  $4.25/hr. I generally worked on Wednesdays from 4pm-7pm. Much of that time was spent listening to Z100 on the clock radio and doing homework. Oh and there was that one time that a funeral got scheduled, but I failed to write it down in all the like 5 places I was supposed to, so the family and funeral home showed up to a locked church...oooooooooopps. Thankfully it got worked out quickly and I didn't get fired due to my misstep.

Each subsequent year of high school I picked up an additional gig, summer after 10th grade I worked my first of 3 summers at a Day Camp near my house while keeping the Rectory job. I loved my summers as a Camp Counselor - I got a delicious free lunch every day, got to work on my tan, make new friends, and some of the male Counselors were babes. I also liked the kids, I worked with Kindergarten boys my first summer - they were my favorite. Then 1st grade girls and finally 6th grade girls. As a Counselor, we only got paid a small stipend, but tips at the end of the summer were awesome!

The summer prior to my Senior year of high school I picked up another job at CVS, which was right across from the Camp, so during the summer on days that I was working at CVS I’d walk across the street for a 4:30-9:30pm shift after an 8am-4pm day at Camp. I knew I had a good work ethic, but I also wanted to be away from my house as much as possible and the spending money was critical since by this time I was paying for most of my own clothes, school supplies, etc. By this time, summer 2000, the minimum wage has risen to $5.15/hr. I also l really loved my time at CVS, being on register and facing the shelves were my favorite. My coworkers were also a cast of characters which made working there entertaining. I was working at CVS was when “ExtraCare Card” launched, I wanna say February-March 2001. I still have my OG card.  While working there I ended up picking up some hours in the Pharmacy as a tech and went to a few weekend training for some “certifications.” I actually got paid a little more for the hours I worked in the Pharmacy which was great. Plus I really like Pharmacy too, well except for dealing with insurance companies, but nobody like them!

Even after I left for college I came back to work at CVS over my 5-6 week Winter break my freshman year. On New Years Eve 2001 (going into 2002) about an hour before the 6pm holiday closing the store was held up... at gunpoint... by a former employee... who I hugged only minutes before when I saw him in the store. I was actually in Pharmacy when the robbery happened, but my friend (an elementary school turned he friend who I got the job at CVS a year prior) was the one held up in the office when the robber slipped in behind her. I didn’t know we were robbed until after the fact, but needless to say my CVS career did not extend through whatever shifts I was scheduled to work the rest of Winter break. I actually was subpoenaed to testify at the Grand Jury trial months later which required me to get excused from college in CT to go to Long Island for a long weekend. Despite this blemish on my CVS experience, I am still a very loyal CVS customer.

If you thought I worked a lot in high school, then spoiler alert: I worked even more in college.

Marijuana Legalization in Canada Has Companies Chasing a Green Rush

The top 12 Canadian marijuana companies are now worth nearly 55 billion Canadian dollars, or $42 billion, and investors are snapping up the stock. Should the U.S. follow Canada’s lead and legalize marijuana on a national level: (1) Yes, (2) No? Why? What are the ethics underlying your decision?

Millions of dollars worth of marijuana plants sat under lamps brighter than the noonday sun as employees of Canada’s largest cannabis business bustled about the 47 giant growing rooms of its factory, which once made Hershey bars.

Now it’s home to Tweed, whose parent company, Canopy Growth, was the first Canadian marijuana grower to debut on the New York Stock Exchange.

Valued at more than $10 billion, Canopy is worth even more than Bombardier, the Canadian manufacturer that is one of the world’s largest makers of planes and trains, offering a stark example of this nation’s new get-rich-quick hope — the marijuana industry.

On Oct. 17, Canada is set to become only the second country in the world and the first major economy to legalize marijuana for all uses. Companies are clamoring to join in what some are calling a green rush.

“It’s like Seagram’s back when Prohibition was in place and just about to end,” said Deborah Weinstein, a lawyer in Ottawa who handled Canopy’s move onto the Toronto Stock Exchange, with the stock symbol WEED. “But it’s more than that. This has never been an industry.”

On the same day that marijuana becomes legal, the government will announce a program to make it easier for Canadians convicted of possessing small amounts of marijuana to obtain a pardon, according to an official familiar with the plan.

The official, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, said that because several details must still be worked out, the program will not become active immediately. Pardons are to be available only for people convicted of possessing 30 grams of marijuana or less, the legal limit under the new system.

The law limits the products that can contain cannabis; edibles, for example, will not be legal until next year.

The legislation also heavily restricts advertising and is laden with bureaucratic rules, including licensing and inspection requirements for producers.

But companies are already lobbying for more permissive rules.

The fervor is a little reminiscent of the dot-com boom of the 1990s. The top 12 Canadian marijuana companies are now worth nearly 55 billion Canadian dollars, or $42 billion, and investors are snapping up the stock.

Profits, though, are a dream of the future. At Tweed, for example, sales last year from the medical marijuana business were just 77 million Canadian dollars. The company lost 70 million dollars.

Some investors may be sorry. Not every marijuana producer now taking stock markets by storm will profit and survive, many experts believe.

There are 120 businesses licensed to grow medical marijuana, which has been legal in Canada since 2001. They are now poised to serve people who simply want to get high. In provinces where the private sector will handle retail sales, companies are scrambling for licenses to open stores.

Shoppers Drug Mart, the country’s largest pharmacy chain, has taken out a medical cannabis producer license.

Most big alcohol players appear to be sitting back for now, except for some investments, but analysts expect they will eventually get more involved.

A notable exception is Jakob Ripshtein, who used to head the Canadian operations of Diageo, the British-based liquor giant that makes Guinness beer and owns several of Seagram’s brands.

In May, he became the chief operating officer of Aphria, which owns an expansive and expanding marijuana greenhouse complex near Leamington, Ontario.

“Do I believe there are going to be different players coming into the industry?” Mr. Ripshtein said. “I absolutely do.”

Only dried cannabis, oils and seeds will go on sale this month. But the industry is dreaming up a future that will include products like cannabis-laced candies. At a large lab at Tweed, for example, scientists are laboring away under fume hoods on marijuana drinks.

[For future coverage of marijuana legalization in Canada and other Canadian news, subscribe to our weekly Canada Letter newsletter.]

There is also an industry around the industry, already making money.

Businesses have sprung up to create the software that allows growers to track their plants and final products, as the government requires. Marijuana growers are also voracious consumers of supplies like fertilizers, as well as energy.

And greenhouse makers now have a customer base beyond tomato and green pepper farmers.

Beyond that, abandoned factories, like the one Tweed operates in, have suddenly become hot properties.

Even Canadian news organizations have joined in. In Toronto, The Globe and Mail has hired reporters and editors to produce “Cannabis Professional,” a daily newsletter that will cost 2,000 Canadian dollars a year for a subscription.

David Campbell is one of those profiting from the boom.

Mr. Campbell, 50, has a background in management at companies that make machines dauntingly known as “supercritical fluid botanical carbon dioxide extraction systems.” Typically they decaffeinate coffee.

But they are also ideal for squeezing the active ingredients out of marijuana plants to create oil.

So in 2015, when Justin Trudeau was campaigning for recreational legalization (Uruguay legalized the drug in 2013), Mr. Campbell set up Advanced Extraction Systems in Charlottetown, Prince Edward Island, just to serve the cannabis industry.

Mr. Campbell hasn’t looked back. The company has sold 12 systems this year, including one to a medical marijuana company in Germany. Advanced has gone from one employee, Mr. Campbell, to 14, most of them engineers.

“We feel this is just the beginning,” Mr. Campbell said. “We’re targeting California hard now.”

Even seemingly minor announcements about the industry can create paper fortunes overnight.

In September, Tilray, a producer with headquarters in Nanaimo, British Columbia, said the Food and Drug Administration in the United States had given it permission to export a cannabis compound to the University of California, San Diego, for medical research.

The value of the sale is so small that the company declined to disclose it. But the news still sent Tilray’s stock price up by 78 percent, adding billions to its value. The excitement soon faded and its shares have dropped back toward their previous value.

Meanwhile, the size of the industry is anyone’s guess.

Statistics Canada, the census agency, estimated that last year Canadians handed over 5.7 billion Canadian dollars for marijuana, with 90 percent of that going to a vast black market of dealers and underground websites.

No one knows what will happen now to the illegal trade, with its greater selection and lower prices, although the government has vowed to stamp it out.

The biggest players in Canadian marijuana, including Canopy, came out of the medical marijuana system, which was greatly expanded about five years ago.

Bruce Linton, Canopy’s chief executive, acknowledged that from the first days of legal medical marijuana his mind was on the day that the much larger recreational market would open for legitimate business.

But he, like most in the cannabis business, sees the government’s tight limits on advertising and marketing as an obstacle to future profits.

The government requires that marijuana be sold in plain packages that feature large health warnings and tiny logos. Advertising is limited to what Health Canada, the federal department that regulates cannabis, calls “information-type promotion” and “brand-preference promotion” all of which must be kept away from the eyes of children.

No ads are supposed to appear until Oct. 17, but several companies have jumped the gun and run advertisements that bend — or possibly break — the upcoming rules.

Health Canada said in a statement that it has cautioned several of the companies.

At the same time, a steady stream of lobbyists to Ottawa has been pushing for looser marketing rules, among other things.

Federal lobbying records show that public servants, political staff members and cabinet ministers have received 583 visits or phone calls from marijuana industry lobbyists since Mr. Trudeau was sworn in as prime minister in November 2015. That includes 92 lobbying visits alone by Brendan Kennedy, the president and chief executive of Tilray.

In the Tweed factory in eastern Ontario, where children used to buy broken candy bars from Hershey, Tweed has a carefully appointed visitors’ center, museum, cafe and gift shop offering clothing and marijuana paraphernalia.

Visitors can learn that Louis Hébert sowed the first cannabis seeds in what would become Canada in 1606, and sniff the scents of the company’s various strains of marijuana.

The atmosphere is a more successful tech start-up than Cheech and Chong, with employees in white lab coats, disposable jumpsuits or black T-shirts, all bearing the company’s retro script logo.

One recent day in the visitors’ center, two of Tweed’s 2,000 global employees talked over social media strategies at a long table of artfully distressed wood.

Mr. Linton was there, too, preparing to meet the civic leadership of Smiths Falls to discuss a mural for an outer factory wall that would depict the history of the town and imagine its future.

He recalled when cannabis was hardly a sure bet.

For much of his career Mr. Linton was involved in several tech start-ups in Ottawa.

When he decided just over five years ago to leave tech behind to start a marijuana business, his associates and family members had a unanimous view that it was a “very, very bad idea.” They were almost proved right.

In its early days, the company twice ran out of money, Mr. Linton said, and narrowly avoided bankruptcy only because of a last-minute infusion of cash from hard-to-find investors.

Now investors have bet billions of dollars on his vision. And Mr. Linton declared that Oct. 17 will be a unique moment in Canada’s history.

“The epicenter of the public policy is here, and everybody’s coming to Canada from all the other countries to see how we do it,” he said. “Actually having home field for the first time ever in anything — this is amazing.”

6. Who is the most famous person you’ve ever met.

I've 'met' a whole heap, like I've paid at cons and things to meet Aidan Turner, Dean O'Gorman, Andrew Scott, Karen Gillan. I went to the Age of Ultron prem when I was in London last time and got photos/signatures with Mark Ruffalo (ultimate fav), Chris Hemsworth, Jeremy Renner, Aaron Taylor Johnson. I got Robert Downey Jrs autograph but no photo. But just by chance without planning too I met Jenna Coleman. We were visiting my family in Wales and just so happened to drive past during filming. Didn't quite get to meet Peter Capaldi though. And then I was in London last time, me and my best friend walked into Jamie Campbell Bower in the street. The story Is actually so cool but I feel like this answer is long enough hahah.

7. What are some of your favorite movies/TV?

Movies: Eternal Sunshine, Only Lovers Left Alive, Big Daddy (my go to movie when I'm sad, I love Adam Sandler). I always struggle to answer this because after I think of one I should have mentioned! Shutter Island. 

TV Shows: There are far too many but right now Riverdale, obviously. And I just smashed through Brooklyn 99. The OC, Game of Thrones, Doctor Who, SOA, Friends, Being Human, the list goes on...

8. What are some of your favorite bands/musicians?

SO my first favourite and was Panic! At The Disco. Then My Chemical Romance took over my life. Now I'm into The 1975, Arctic Monkeys, Bastille, Hozier, Tom Odell, James Bay, Ed Sheeran. Thanks to my Dad I love Alanis Morrissette and Radiohead. Thanks to my Mum I have a soft spot for Robbie Williams. My music taste is diverse so I listen to a lot of rap. I'll defend Kanye West to my dying breath, I really like Post Malone at the moment too. It chops and changes so so much. Also I've seen One Direction 4 times so judge as you will, ahaha.

Pretty generic, really. Harry Potter series, LOTR, The Mortal Instruments series and all that go with it. Fault In Our Stars, All The Bright Places, Lovely Bones.

10. Favorite Food?

I love Mexican food.

11. Biggest pet peeve?

Sidewalk Hoggers who walk SO SLOW.

12. What did you want to be when you were little? What do you want to be now?

I always wanted to sing or act, but seeing as I can do neither.. I always wanted to work in the entertainment industry and sometimes still do, like behind the scenes. Maybe in Media. But for now I love working in Pharmacy and want to train to become a Pharmacy Tech.

13. What are your biggest fears? Do you have any strange fears?

I don't have many fears, I have no issue with the dark or heights or anything like that. I HATE bugs, like any kind of insect or creepy crawly, just no. Sometimes even butterflies irk me.

And as far as strange fears, everyone always looks at me weird when I say this, I have a fear of whales.. Like I don't like the ocean or fish, sharks etc, but I can handle it. But whales? No. I get goosebumps and feel like my throat closes up when I look at them. I think it's to do with their sheer size and power. I don't even know why but I just, I can't.

14. When you are on your deathbed what would be the one you’d regret not doing? 

Seeing the world.

Okay... lets talk about your writing!

15. Which is your favorite of the fics you've written for the Bughead fandom?

Probably Who She Was, How She Loved. It was only a one shot, and it hurt like hell to write, but it seemed to get a reaction from everyone who read it and that's what we write for, right? I don't even know where I pulled that fic from, but I really love it. It feels real.

16. Which was the hardest to write, in terms of plot?

Ever Since New York, just to keep it going. I didn't want to drag it out too much, but it needed a fair amount of content. So I struggled at the end there.

17. How do you come up with the ideas for you fic(s)? Do you people watch? Listen to music? Get inspired by TV/movies?

A lot of it definitely comes from music. Like, if the lyrics to a song resonate with me I always think of a story to go with it. Always, even if I have no intention of writing it. I also pull inspiration from certain movies and things, but it is definitely music at the forefront.

18. Idea that you always wanted to write but could never make work?

I really love the idea of room mate fics, I haven't actually tried though. Maybe I could do it.

19. Least favorite plot point/chapter/moment you’ve written?

I only posted the last chapter of ESNY the other day, and the response has been good, but I'm still not happy with it. I couldn't even read it over. I don't really know what my problem is, I guess I just felt it was very anti-climatic.

20. Favorite plot point/chapter/moment you’ve written?

In my fic And Then? There's a scene where Betty & Jug are in the ocean yelling, and I really loved that moment.

21.Favorite character to write? 

Jughead. Always. He has layers...  

22. Favorite line or lines of dialogue that you've written?

Dark. Brown. Not round, more sleek. The complete opposite of the girl who's face was flashing through Jughead’s mind at this very moment. Which he knew, of course he did. That's why he had picked her. With her dark head of hair, and her dark eyes, he would never have to be reminded of the one he was missing.

Except for the fact that he saw Betty Cooper in everything. And everyone.

23. Best comment/review you’ve ever received?

Every comment someone goes out of their way to write about something I've spent time on is amazing. I think it always makes me smile though when they say they can see it all happening as they read. And you know, making them cry when they say fanfic never makes them cry.

24. How do you handle bad reviews or comments?

I haven't been 'lucky' enough to have to deal with this, yet. But I think I would just ignore and delete the comment. Who needs that negativity.

25. If you could change anything in any of your stories, what would it be?

I think I would have included more characters in Ever Since New York, like Archie etc.

26. What is your favorite story you’ve ever written? Any fandom?

I've only ever written for the Bughead fandom, but my favourite is Who She Was purely for the emotions. I'm a sucker for emotions.

27. What are you reading right now? Both fan fiction and general fiction?

I have 51 bookmarks on AO3. So I am reading basically everything right now haha. But in terms of general fiction, I haven't read anything in a while and I need too.

28. Do you have an advice for writers that want to get into this fandom but might be scared? 

As typical as it sounds, just do it. I was so nervous, but this fandom is hands down the best. Everyone is so, so welcoming, and if there are so many people to reach out too if you’re ever feeling unsure about your own work or anything. Just take the dive guys, it's a fun ride.

Athens_03

June.05.2017 Hello hello- Today is my second to last day in Athens, and what a day it was. I knew that today I would be spending the majority of my time on the acropolis, so I woke up early, although not as early as my roommate's. Out of the six beds, I was the last to get up today at 7:00a! The acropolis opens at 8a, so I decided to leave my 7:30 so I had enough time to eat, and probably get lost while walking there. I did the normal routine of brushing my teeth and getting ready. I made sure to wear a dry fit shirt, as I figured I'd be sweating a lot, and that it would be a good idea to wear something that wouldn't show the stains, would fight the odor, and would also just dry and keep me cool. Boy was that a smart move. I left the hostel and headed back to where I got breakfast yesterday. I considered getting something else - then had bread and cheese, a breakfast pizza kind of thing, cheese bread with bacon, but I ended up just getting spanakopita again. No regrets! So good! I ate as I walked and then actually sat the in the square as I was a bit early. It was an interesting time to be there, as it was being cleaned from the night before. Something that Athens really cares about as a city is their cleanliness. They employ a lot of people to sweep public areas pretty late into the night. Maybe just during tourist season? Who knows. Anyways, the homeless were also out looking for things to recycle. The homeless population in Athens is predominantly the elderly and the migrants. It is heartbreaking but also tough because they are sometimes very rude and can be quite scary if it gets to that point. I finished my breakfast and walked up the huge hill to the acropolis. Along the way, I stopped at every sign and every little side attraction. I know that the journey up was just as sacred and important for the ancients, so I wanted to be sure I didn't miss anything. I actually stood on a spot where Paul gave a sermon to the Athenians, and basically started the Christian church in Greece! Pretty neat. I also learned here that my chacos, or rather all shoes, are no match for marble and how slippery it is. I made a mental not to be very careful. Before long, I was up at the top ready to buy my ticket. Thankfully, my student ID got me 50% off again! I really enjoyed my time walking around and up to the main gate. It is crazy to think that these structures were designed and built thousands of years ago, before Jesus was even alive! I also started to realize how hot it was getting and started swearing. But no worries, everyone was. I made my way around the Parthenon and made a few sketches. I met a really nice couple from Alaska. They flew from Alaska to Seattle to Amsterdam to Athens! 29 hours! They took my photo and I took one of them as an exchange. I didn't really take too many photos as I was busy just enjoying my time on the top of Athens. I read and sketched and walked my way though. I really loved the theater of Dionysus. He is the Greek god of wine and of theater. It's here that drama, comedy and tragedy came into being! Super cool. I spent s little extra time walking and sketching it, as I was just so interested. After doing the whole loop, I realized it had been several hours and I hadn't even made it to the acropolis museum yet. I was really excited to go and see the acropolis museum, as a famous architect, Bernard Tschumi designed it, and it is considered to be one of the best historical museums in the world. They were right! It was a 10 minute walk to the museum, and I stayed for hours. Photos weren't allowed so I sketched a lot and snuck some anyways. I was so impressed with how they made everything based off the of the Parthenon, with the dimensions of materials, the displays, and even the light fixtures. Just so beautiful and so great for the work. At this point I was hungry and ready for lunch/dinner. I always find that during lunch it's easier to snack on fruit or a light sandwich rather than stop the flow of the day. That's why I always have some sort of snack on me. I decided to eat a traditional Greek salad and made my way back to the hostel, as there was a restaurant the hostel worker suggested. I cut through the beautiful gardens and hills of the acropolis and was quickly sat down at the restaurant. Greek salad in the states is usually some kind of lettuce with olives, spicy peppers, and mushrooms, onions, tomatoes, etc. with a dressing. In Greece, it's mostly mushrooms, red onion, a few olives, cucumbers, and lots of feta cheese! It was a perfect meal. I paired it with some pita bread and amazing olive oil. I even got free watermelon as a desert! Feeling dull and happy, I ventured to find a super market or pharmacy to buy some disposable razors. I forgot to pack any, and needed to shave pretty desperately. I was looking a little ragged. I found one on the map and navigated my way there. Unfortunately, it wasn't the one I thought it was, and it actually ended up being in a sort of sketchy part of town. It was close so I decided to go, not realizing. I got there, bought my razors, and speedily walked back to the hostel. Once back, I asked if there was a book store with English books. I was told where to go and walked to a cool 4 story building that was kind of like a small mall/Barnes and noble. They sold toys, books, tech gadgets, ice cream... everything! I bought Mark Twain's A Tale of Two Cities, as I've always wanted to read it, but never actually did. Plus it's a challenging read so I won't finish it as quickly. Which is important! I decided to train back because I was tired. I hopped on the metro, got off at my stop, walked towards the hostel, picked up a beer, and made my way to the roof. I decided to end my day by reading, sketching the acropolis from the hostel, and drinking a cold beer to relax. I got up to the roof and found two Korean girls. They were nice and were actually headed to the airport. They had just bought strawberries and cherries, and gave them to me. Funny, because I was thinking about buying some tomorrow! I drank my beer, sketched and read, and then decided to go down and shower. It was a long day, and I was in need of one. I changed, showered, shaved, and then researched what to do tomorrow. Originally I wanted to take a ferry to an island, but it would take too much time for a day trip, and cost too much money. As of now I'm still deciding if I should take a bus to a local beach or if I should just wander the city. Only time will tell! I also counted how much underwear I have left and have decided I need to do laundry in Egypt. Eek! So excited to go soon!!! Anyways, now I'm just in bed. I've written a few emails to friends and professors and written a few post cards. I need to figure out how to send them and make sure they get to where they need to go. So here I am! Until tomorrow --
