The company says the group selected to, in its words, “dance with the devil’s lettuce” will work on weed for up to 16 hours per month, on top of a $200 expense account.

The marijuana enthusiasts — all 19 or older — will also be asked to write social media posts, appear in video segments and show up at company events, though participation is optional.
