6:30 AM – Early Bird Gets the Green
As I pull into the quiet parking lot of Altius Dispensary in Round Lake Beach, the sun is just beginning to peek over the horizon. The early morning silence won’t last long – we’re expecting another busy day serving both experienced cannabis enthusiasts and curious newcomers.
7:15 AM – Opening Procedures
After security checks and system boot-ups, I begin reviewing our inventory. Working at a recreational cannabis dispensary requires meticulous attention to detail. Every product must be accounted for, and compliance is our top priority.
8:00 AM – Doors Open
The first customers arrive right as we open. Many are regulars who appreciate our knowledgeable staff and diverse selection. Being the only dispensary in Round Lake Beach means we take our responsibility to educate and serve our community seriously.
Key Daily Tasks Include:
- Verifying customer identification
- Providing product education
- Maintaining inventory accuracy
- Ensuring compliance with Illinois regulations
- Creating welcoming experiences for all customers
2:00 PM – Peak Hours
The afternoon rush brings in a diverse crowd. Some are looking for relief from chronic conditions, while others are seeking recreational products for relaxation. Each interaction reinforces our motto: “Change Your Altitude with Altius.”
7:00 PM – Closing Thoughts
As the day winds down, I reflect on how the cannabis industry has evolved. Here at Altius, we’re proud to be part of a movement that combines professional service with personal care, serving the broader Round Lake Beach area with dignity and expertise.
Working in this rapidly growing industry is never dull, and tomorrow will bring new opportunities to help our community discover the benefits of legal cannabis in Illinois.
