I wanted to deliver marijuana, because the tips are really nice.
My buddy Jack was a driver and he made about a hundred dollars every night.
He only worked six hours and still made money. He offered to get me a job working with him at the marijuana shop. I got hired right away, but there were no driver positions available at that time. I had to work inside the store. I still earned a good hourly wage, but I really wanted to deliver and make money every night. When the boss offered me a position three months later, I jumped on the opportunity. It was the rainy season at the time and the weather was gross every day. The sky was cloudy and overcast with cold temperatures and wind and rain. One of my first deliveries was on top of a really steep hill. I barely made it up the hill in the wet rain and mud. Thank goodness the house had a concrete driveway. On the way down the hill, my tires kept sliding down the hill. When I hit a patch of wet blacktop, I slammed on the brakes and that was a bad idea. I ended up going into a ditch. The front of my car was completely stuck in the mud on the side of the ravine. I called my boss at the marijuana shop because I knew I wasn’t going to be able to come back to work. I had to call a tow truck to dig out my car. Thankfully my Dad paid for the tow, because it was $275.
