Are you a cannabis worker? Do you know one? UCLA is conducting research on the labor conditions of Cannabis Workers in California, specifically in the job sectors of retail, delivery and cultivation. It takes about 45-60 minutes to complete, survey questions pertain to barriers and opportunities, responses are 100% confidential and afterwards, participants receive a 40$ e-gift card. The following QR code leads to a screening form whereby from there you can see if you qualify in 4 easy questions. From the screening form, participants will be contacted by a surveyor, like myself here, or other surveyor here. Visit Here for Spanish Link. This survey can be done via phone-call, google meet/zoom, or in-person.
PROLOGUE:
CAPITALISM:
CAN IT REALLY BE REPLACED?
OJALA QUE SI.
YOU WANT TO TALK TO
SOMEONE. TO HEAR IT FOR YOUR-
SELF. PERO BASTA!
HEART EYES ROLL FOR BACK.
PEACHES NEVER ROT PERO
COMO ME DUELE.
DONT MAKE EYE CONTACT.
DEJAME EN PAZ, PORFIS.
MIND YOUR BUSINESS, DUDE.
ORANGE SPRINKLED ON
THESE MOUNTAINS REMINDS ME OF
QUE GENTIL ERES.
WASNT GOING TO
DO MORE SI LO QUE PASO
FUE MEDIOCRE.
THE SMELL OF CARNE
ASADA WAFTING THROUGH THE
AIR. DELICIOSO.
QUE SIGNIFICA
WHEN YOU HARDCORE IGNORE YOUR
FAMILY OUT OF SPITE?
OLVIDE DE MI
FELICIDAD WHILE WORKING.
VOY ENCONTRARLA.
I HAD A CALL THIS
MORNING CON MI PAPA BUT
I JUST LET HIM DOWN.
BEING PICKY CAN
CERTAINLY BE LONELY, BUT
YO TE ESPERO.
EPILOGUE:
PRUEBAME LINDO
LO JURO QUE TE VAS A
GUSTAR. JUST LIKE THAT.
