East of Eden Cannabis Co. – Salinas

Today, 9/13/2025. I happen to be in the area and it was the first time I ever went to this establishment

I pulled into the parking lot. The 6 regular parking spots in front that were all occupied. This left 5 empty spots that said “curbside delivery/pick up only.”

So, I pulled into one of the five empty,” curbside pick up only,” parking spots.

When I walked up front to provide the security guard with my ID, he said that I cannot park in those spots and would have to find another place to park…

Guess what, I did find another place to park. At another establishment not far away.

This security guard was enforcing his false sense of power, and ego. NOT common sense. Nor, was this security guard thinking about what is best for the business or its owners/employees.

Evidently, the security guard does NOT care about the business owners bottom line.
He only cares about his own ego and false sense of power and wonders why he is in his mid 30s Making $25 an hour/40k a year. (Tops :( )

As a business owner myself, I would not allocate 40% of my parking to online curb pick ups, (Covid is over)
Nor would I employ these security clowns that you employ.

Common sense…. Sheeeeesh!

You can do better!!
