I worked for a local fast food store who had a strong management building tool, that was a school for their managers.
Most of their managers came up through the ranks, starting out as kitchen employees. Some of the better managers started out working as lobby cleaners and learning every job in the building. When I moved on from that job and applied for a job with the local cannabis dispensary, I was aware of how a management team should work. That they gave me a job as a manager, when I did not know of the cannabis business, had me worried. Luckily, I was a floor manager, and all I handled was the employee scheduling system. I simply input all the information for hours needed and the dispensary employee scheduling system did the rest. I had to make changes when someone told me they needed time off, but it was required to give at least two weeks’ notice, unless there was an emergency. The dispensary employee scheduling system made it easier to see where you needed more employee hours, and where you needed fewer employee hours. I enjoyed working for the cannabis dispensary and using the dispensary employee scheduling system. It worked much like the employee scheduling system I had in the fast food store, and I was in my element with this program. If I said there were never any mistakes, I would be a liar. The dispensary employee scheduling system is a tool, and if not used properly, there can be sometimes when you don’t have enough people to keep up with the customers. I’ve already had three employees on break because I misjudged the hours when business was busy.
