Bridget Sharp found satisfying work dispensing drugs, but she’s no pharmacist.

Sharp is a budtender at Blue Collar Criminals, a medical marijuana business that grows, processes and dispenses marijuana bud and other cannabis-related products. As a budtender, she acts as a guide when medical marijuana license-holders visit the business in need of something to soothe an aching pain, provide relief for epileptic seizures or other medical conditions that could benefit from the use of medical marijuana.

But Sharp has no formal medical training — few budtenders do.

Instead, she relies on personal experience and customer feedback to provide recommendations for marijuana.
