Article made it sound like one long headache.

There was a guy on Reddit the other day who runs a pot store in Denver. He did an AMA and was talking about some of the crazy things you have to go through. Every step of the operation has to be on video. You harvest the pot and have to put it in containers that are labeled and sealed with a special coded device. When you then move it to another room to sort it and grade it you have to put it in a different container and seal it with a different device. You repeat that step again for getting it ready for retail and then again for putting it out for sale. He said the number of dumb, redundant steps are just insane.
