An outsiders view on pharm: You get paid better than ERAC but not great to be a PR rep, not a sales person. Yes you get a company car, but you spend your days bringing subway lunches to doctors that dont want to see you any way. They give you 30 secconds of their time while you pimp your drugs, and try to make them write scripts for your products, without regards for the patients needs. All they want are the free samples, if you think differently you're kidding yourself. Walking in to talk to that bitch of an office manager will just about make you puke, but I have to see her every other week, but Dr. Jhgfjuwtfiuwt is nice for the 8 secconds he gives me while signing for his drugs. The day goes by the whole time wishing you worked for a better drug company, and hating the people in your "pod" who are not pulling their weight.

Im not slamming Pharm jobs, but it just shows that there is more than one view on the situation

By the way ERAC sucks...

I love the post. Thanks for the advice. :) Maybe in a couple of years I can come work for you. :) Seriously, nice stuff. pretty right on with the field.

There isnt a job out there that you will not hate...eventually

Your right on that!!!

Wish sarcasm could come through in writing. He was pretty right on the field but I don't see myself leaving any time soon. I've only had 2 jobs in 10 years so your little advice that I won't like any job is totally thrown out the window. Generalizing about me when you don't know the whole story just doens't make sense. later

During the brief time I worked their I became withddrawn, depressed, angry and tired all the time. When I found out I got another job...that day I walked out the front door. One of the most satisfying days of my life!

Why did the MT get into a fight over her? I thought she is pretty old and ugly. Not to mention she used to wear tight suit that never fit with bright color thinking she was on Miami Vice. Did both MT get fire as well? Please give me the juicy scoop!!!

Neither MT got fired. I actually know one of the MT's and they did not get into a fight at a party. KM was caught by a manager with one of the MT's being inappropriate after hours. The MT I know was good looking and really nice...I was shocked when I found out. KM didn't give up who the other MT was, they knew about one but gave him a slap on the wrist since she should have known better and he could have sued (since she was in a power position over him.)

what about mark williams?

[piperl]

didn't mark williams get fired along time ago? when i worked under jc..or jl now...the rumor was that she banged him?
