Kinda have the same question as the op.
More interested on how to put your foot in the door in CO. Worked in CA on a farm and have trimmed plenty. Willing to start from the bottom and do grunt work just didn't know where to go to start the climb. |

If you have a clean record and can present yourself as having even a modicum of responsibility, there seems to be a decent amount of entry jobs trimming or working the counter, minimum wage here though isn't really enough to live on. The thing that would be sort of hard is a lot of places want you to have a MED card before they will hire you, and you need to be a resident to get one, but it is easy other than that. Moving without a job is a pretty bad idea since so many people are coming to the area and looking for work, but you could probably grab some basic labor/service job if necessary to hold you over.

 it doesn't take a "clean record" to get a badge to get a job in the industry... just takes a relatively clean record, nothing pending and NO recent drug charges (5 or so years). key badge holders can't have drug felonies. no pending taxes or loans (gotta at least have a payment setup, if any financial shit you have is in default, badge aint gonna be easy to get, but you setup payments and start paying and the badge will come). industry jobs ain't paying much, and real estate situation on the front range is.... fucked.

That is a good clarification, I shoulda said "fairly clean" but from what I gather the dispo's have enough applicants that any drug crimes will disqualify you. Maybe they should look to change that, I have only had 2 budtenders (+1 that was decent) that actually knew what they were talking about. Then again, I don't think getting busted would make you any more knowledgeable, just expands the possible pool of applicants. I think it would be quite a bit of fun to work at a dispo or even to just volunteer, would like to learn more on the commercial production side of things. Given the housing situation though, moving out here to make basically minimum wage, seems sorta pointless. |

I have lived here in Colorado for over 20 years.... If your serious about moving , I would stay far from Denver, the actual statutorily is on average 500 People a day ! Are moving to Denver ! I live near a resort, where its also very expensive, however most the dudes who are dissuading you on here are living in that swollen city or somewhere near. There are plenty of affordable places to live here and opportunitys in the industry
.IF you are willing to live in a more remote location... i.e....many hour's from Denver. If you want to live in the highest town in the u.s., Leadville is pretty affordable. 3 bd can be found for less than a g a month. |

I don't mind living far away from the city as long as I would be working at something in the industry. I'll look into leadville as well.
Also thanks everyone for the replies. As far as my record all my charges have been expunged. |
