Mort's Rolling In the Dough

Mortimer found school to be a great big bore
Finished twelfth grade, couldn't take any more
   Didn't want 'nine-to-five'
   How would he ever thrive
Mort's smart ~ Opened up a cannabis store

Well, apparently one doesn't need any certificates or diplomas to do this type of work! Incidentally, many school dropouts somehow manage to become rich! ~ Regards // paul

Actually, schools are beginning to offer majors in 'cannabis managment,' whatever that is. Seems to me if you can handle inventory and cash management, the future is yours with this product. ~ Up in Smoke

I don't know what hours he's working, but I'm sure his customers will find him. I reckon he's growing his own.
