Recently we had an article about working in a hookah lounge. This time we are going to switch our focus to a different work environment when it comes to hookah industry. There is a specific place in hookah industry that is a hookah shops. These stores supply the whole community with various new inventions. Working in a hookah shop is one of the crucial jobs in hookah industry. 

Although it is more of a laid-back position compared to the hookah lounge positions you still have to go through some sort of degree of preparation. Even though you will not be tested for various hookah packing techniques, it is still a narrow knowledge based field position. You will not need any practical skills when it comes to hookah, but you’ll need to know the aspects of every thing in hookah. Often times it is beneficial to have practical skills and first hands experience with hookah to better understand various techniques and ways of getting around the hookah. The constantly and rapidly evolving and changing industry of hookah market spits out new things every other week and it is crucial to stay on top of what the things are generally are and how they are used. This massive and extensive knowledge base should be available at all times since people would be asking for help and advice from the attendants. 

Here in hookah shops people sell goods, not the services and there is a different mindset that has to be applied towards the good quality service. People have to be knowledgable and friendly to the customers and provide the best possible advice and recommendation when it comes to the hookahs.

The working hors are more standardized and usually span throughout the day. IT is easier for people that are ore accustomed to the “normal” or socially acceptable working hours. 

As for the pros and cons, of this position I would point out that it is relatively laid back to work in the hookah shop while still being a part of the industry and having an access to the all new innovative and revolutionary products. For cons, I would say that the working in a hookah shop does not provide that level of fun and creativity as if you were working in a hookah lounge. Plus, if you are really enjoying hookah, hookah lounge positions might be the best fit, since they provide all the benefits of unlimited hookahs.
