Weed Wars: New show on Discovery

[SirTOKESalot]

I still Cant figure out if this show is trying to advocate medicinal cannabis, Or advocate inappropriate old school "typical" stoner antics?

There are some crazy dudes on here, someone should go and take care of harbour side. "Before all of that secrete money Steven harper is sending to tarnish the medicinal community, and make them look like a bunch of goofs that want to get stoned and giggle. Actually starts paying off."

Sirtokesalot,
imho alot of the weed/ grow business actually consists of these types. My local growshop for example is that damn incompetent it's unbelievable, in any other kind of occupation they would be broke in months. I once bought 5 items there, asked especially for an unmarked box as i was using the train, what they gave me: 1 item wrong size, 1 item wrong brand, 1 item different from the discription in their catalogue, 1 item more expensive than price in catalogue, all this packed in a big box marked "YOUR FUCKING LOCAL GROWSHOP", which i schlepped smiling through the whole city without noticing the sticker.
Went back a few days later and told them all this. Their compensation was giving me a lecture how generous they are for switching the wrong items for the right ones, after all i could be ripping them off with a fake story(Would have amounted to me getting around 5 bucks worth).
Then lecturing me that they can't give me the catalogue price for the overpayed item, catalogue was from last year- but they didn't have a new one, it was still a pile of last years catalogue lying on the counter for the customers.
FUCKING UNBELIEVABLE.

i enjoyed the 3rd show...

Andrew is not a good general manager telling people to leave it they don't think the meds are good... you can't treat people like that.

the women in the wheel chair should help convince middle America on the benefits of cannabis...

not a good move on the lead buyer's part...

 

[GP73LPC]

there is a lot of created drama from this show.... normally the biggest drama would be 'is the DEA gonna bust through the front doors today?'

can't show that drama on TV so they create drama; stealing, mites, tax issues... more drama than reality if you ask me...

i still enjoy the exposure no matter how much they act like typical stoners... focusing more on patients and some of the more sane people on the show would help...

 

[megayields]

I don't believe that a group of such idiots actually runs a dispensary. I'm telling you, this whole show is written and staged... these people cannot possibly actually exist...

Uhhh I met Steve and his brother when I brought a potential investor/franchisee partner from Camel, CA to introduce them.

He's a stoned tool alright but he is pretty smart in some ways also, but his "crew" (eyes rolling) omg ....it's a definition of California nut jobs...lol

The show blows, watched for the 1st time last night and wasted an hour of my life I will never get back.

 

[TheGreenReaper]

Not hating. What am I hating on? Good for them for what they are doing. But I see a lot in the show that makes me cringe.

As someone from a non-med state I've been trying hard to like this show or at least give these guys a fair shake, but I just cant do it, they are so goddamn unprofessional its embarrassing.

The entire staff, gm's included, run the place like its a fucking weed bar and not a medical marijuana facility everyones stoned on the job and their budtenders come off as utterly clueless when someone with a real medical condition walks in.

The only real moment in the entire show was when the bud tenders complained that the quality of the medicine they were slinging was going to shit, for which they got their asses chewed out and told if you dont tell the customers their crap meds the best stuff on earth...get the fuck out...

Cut to 10 minutes later they're lead buyer, a vicodin junky, gets caught stealing a pound of meds to supply his pill habit... but yeah I'm sure he's real concerned with buying the best meds for Harborsides clientele....

This show makes Harborside look so fucking mickey mouse its not even funny...

Yea not the best show...the lady in the wheelchair was good, but that Steve guy was really bad!! The disp I work at has been ripped off twice, once by an employee and once by 2 guys breaking in and stealing everything, so it happens, but damn that guy was bad!!
Not sure why medicating before a softball game is bad, its about having fun, not always so serious.
Its slow as shit right now, its just that time of year, ppl have their outdoor harvest and dont need to buy from a dispensary. Doesnt take a rocket scientist to figure that out hehehe
I hope it gets better!

Don Duncan is the enemy of every patient, cultivator, and collective owner or employee out there. Doing some research shows how he bribes his way into L.A. City council meetings so he can push his agenda of monopoly.
I am surprised that more people aren't talking about Don Duncan on the various web forums.

Gee, a brand-new user shows up bashing Don Duncan and ASA with no documentation at all.

Does anyone doubt that there are LE agents on here trying to sow discord? The federal government may be bunglers, but they have certainly tried stuff like this in the past.

I do not know whether Don Duncan is Gandhi or Hearst, or something else. But when your first post is a completely unsubstantiated bash, you'll forgive those of us who don't lend it much weight, I hope.

Anybody else catch the batch that got rejected? Open a bud and poof............there's the dust cloud. Been there done that!! That grower is gonna be pissed. He'll come back next week to get paid and they'll hand him his crop back in a plastic bag! Probably be dryer then hell!!!

Who donates 3k worth of Dream Queen? Really? Here's a elbow, share it with you
friends? An oz for everyone that works there? Then what? Little whining Stevie
puts himself down as the vendor? Or did he use a fake name? And then the
guy calls up "How did you like that LB of DQ I donated?" All totally setup.
Maybe it happened, but I bet it happened a while ago, and the re-created it.
That other buyer knew what was up before he looked at the records. Ug.

 

[Mrs.Babba]

They call it a donation cuz its a non profit, but its definitely NOT a donation!

He's not the only one making these claims...and there are reputable people making the same claims...maybe you should do some research yourself about Don Duncan....the guy does seem pretty suspicious

 

[guest8905]

judging by the reactions of SteveD when his bro tells him the news of the theft, id say he looks pretty sincere....i doubt this was set up.

Keep up the hate haters

I just can't see how that shop, or any business for that matter, can operate in the long run, with employees that are fucked up on the job. No wonder they've been getting some bad rep. Not every customer that walks in would appreciate that. There's a time & place for everything.

Just to play Devil's Advocate.

I run a extremely successful business, and I am high everyday at work.

Actually just got back from smoking a bowl, as I type this!
