I think it was affect mystery shops in marijuana stores.... It's not my thing, so I have not taken them. However, we have shops in Washington that pay $0-$5 and reimburse for $20+ in marijuana products. ("Will work for pot" just makes me shake my head.....) If there is a DEA raid, I would not want to be shopping the store at the time....
The number of these shops is negligible compared to other more traditional opportunities, so whether they stay or go will really have no impact on the shopping industry. The new federal policy leaves it to the federal attorneys in each state to determine if/how federal marijuana laws should be enforced, so what happens to the marijuana industry as a whole may vary from state to state. Moreover, Washington is looking for ways to fight the new order as our lawmakers on both sides of the aisle are very hesitant to suspend/rescind an initiative passed by a statewide popular vote...... I don't know what other states are planning, but it could all be very interesting.
Hard work builds character and homework is good for your soul.
