Growing, processing or even just selling marijuana takes a wide array of different skills -- and not all of them are employable in the above-ground labor market. Many former marijuana workers are finding it difficult to re-enter the workforce, especially if they have long and unexplainable gaps in their work-history.
Some marijuana workers and former marijuana workers are likely to find legal, tax-paying jobs working for start-ups in Washington, Oregon and Colorado -- but despite recreational legalization in those states so far there is little evidence to suggest that experienced marijuana horticulturalists from Northern California are finding jobs in those emerging markets.
