Marijuana Shops Lead To Jobs In California In All Industries
Marijuana is still in its infancy in terms of being sold in a traditional retail environment. It reminds me of the Internet early on when companies like Yahoo, Google, AltaVista and many others took the lead before major companies like IBM and even Microsoft really could establish themselves online. Even today, brands like Twitter and Facebook are start ups that grew into larger corporations. The same thing is happening with Marijuana growing/selling in California - major companies are still on the doorstep of getting involved, leaving a multi-billion dollar industry open to start ups and risk-takers.
Risk is involved in just about any job, from construction to office work - all jobs have hazards and dangers. Marijuana is particularly risky because of the negative press it receives when FBI/Federal Agents raid Collectives in what is typically a guns drawn and scary thing to witness. For the most part, this is fairly rare considering the number of shops that exist today, and if the operation is run legitimately - there are less risks involved. However, the negative stigma Marijuana still (and possibly always) will have, is sure to keep many job hunters away from applying to work in this industry for many years.
Larger cities have allowed Marijuana Dispensaries to sell legally to customers for over a decade in California. Recently, with the state/local budget deficits that are effecting every city - along with commercial real-estate being at all-time high vacancy, more Marijuana Dispensaries have been allowed to open within city limits. Oakland and Los Angeles have as many Weed Dispensaries than Starbucks, followed closely by Sacramento and other areas in Northern California. Stockton, CA is one of the more recent Valley Cities to debate opening 3 dispensaries within city limits. With many of the most wealthy people in town looking to get in on the business, there should be plenty of jobs in Stockton coming soon related to the Marijuana business. Dispensaries, or the weed shops themselves are supposed to be run as non-profit' --- or more simply, the money earned has to be spent on business activities, while paying yourself and workers a reasonable wage.
The key factor in creating jobs is that these regulated businesses must spend the majority of profits on business related activities. Those include wages to staff, security, growers, trimmers and management. This also includes spending on advertising, labels, office/shop materials, and commercial real-estate. This type of money can directly impact local businesses that cater to these services. Things like Newspapers/TV/Radio (for advertising) and office supply stores (for labels, signs and other office materials) will benefit greatly from the fact that these businesses are forced to spend the massive profits they bring in. Not to mention, the sales are directly taxed - and that money is distributed to the local government to create more jobs (hopefully).
The truly non-profit and legitimately run Marijuana shops in California can bring jobs and much needed tax revenue to the local areas they are located. Its debatable if getting your 'Marijuana Card' is truly a scientific process, or one that really filters out the people who 'need' the drug versus the people who 'want' the drug. The fact that Marijuana benefits can be applied to many different types of common ailments, makes it a drug that many people can tolerate...therefore making it easy to prescribe. However, the shops themselves employ people (sometimes 24 hours a day) and that is much needed in today's job market. They bring foot-traffic to commercial real-estate areas that are often non used, or under capacity. If the California economy was booming like it did in the .com age or quarter-million dollar homes age ... the jobs created would be minimal. With so many people out of work, and the numbers projected to not get any better for several years, anything to create jobs and tax revenue should be of the highest priority for local governments and lawmakers. The voters of California made the process 'legal' and now that local/state governments need the money, Marijuana should continue to grow and lead to jobs in the state of California.

Budget, Economics, Politics Will Play Role In Unemployment Numbers In Central Valley
More and more people are moving from expensive coastal towns and cities in California to the more affordable Central Valley regions - where homes and other amenities can be had at a fraction of the price of what it cost to live in the Bay Area. Just parking your car alone is hundreds in a large city.
The majority of the California State Budget is directed towards Education and Low-Income Aide ... both worthy things to spend money on. Those are where you see a majority of cuts when the gap to balance the budget is so wide. California has tried to pocket huge sums of money through Marijuana legislation - and possibly Online Poker for California residence. Both, if allowed to flourish, would bring multiple millions of dollars in tax revenue - but at a high price in terms of morality and public image.
Chances are the state is going to have to rely on the Federal Government (or your tax dollar) to continue to loan money to the State and be extremely liberal on payback of that debt. Furthermore, the state will have to rely on long term, sustainable growth that helped develop the information age we all have been enjoying for the last 20 years.
If the state can manage to stay afloat and not tax businesses, students and YOU - to the point that you would want to leave this great state ... as even the 'cheapest' parts of California are quite expensive compared to most other places in the country. Hopefully we can all make it through this together, and make California a great place to live and raise a family.
The key cities in the central valley that would benefit the most from economic recovery would be Modesto, Stockton, Tracy and the surrounding area. Stockton has sports facilities that are some of the newest in the area and have had acts like Bob Dylan and Snoop Dogg perform. There are many jobs available in Stockton - but always be prepared to compete with many other applicants for the time being.
Tracy and the outlying area is one of the most popular places to live for people that work in Livermore, San Jose, San Francisco and the Bay Area. Home prices were extremely high during the peak years, but now they are back into the levels where it makes sense for a Bay Area Family to move to Tracy ... especially larger families where cost of living is high even for 6-Figure earners. Jobs in Tracy, CA tend to be more serviced based or educational - as most of the technical jobs are in the Bay Area.
Modesto, CA is in a great location for those that work in nearby areas. The city has grown much like Stockton has over the years, however - there is still a strong agricultural presence in the area thanks to successful companies like Gallo Wines and Foster Farms. There is a 'nightlife' in Modesto that helps high margin liquor sales going all year. Bartending, waiting tables and other gratuity type jobs are always a good option. From experience, a great place to work is Del Rio Country Club in North Modesto. Stop by and put in your application - they have many positions that come available during the year. For more, try this list of jobs in Modesto California.
There will be financial and political gridlock in California over the next few years, however if the people keep doing there best to survive - the best days are coming for California residences, especially the unemployed.

San Francisco Giants World Series Win = Bay Area Jobs
The Giants took Major League Baseball by storm during the 2010 Playoffs to win its first championship since moving to the city of San Francisco. The Giants have always drawn large crowds to their beautiful ball park which opened in 2000.
This season will probably be one of the most anticipated seasons in team history. That usually means brisk ticket sales from the start of the season - meaning lots of sell-out games next year. On the surface, this obviously means jobs within the organization selling tickets, serving sodas and hot-dogs during games and other jobs. However, the surrounding restaurants and shopping destinations will have even more foot traffic coming through the city next season for each game.
Look for more jobs to open up near the stadium as next season comes around. Thanks to the Giants - the city of San Francisco has an MLB Championship and more jobs.
