Didn't bowling go out in the 1970's?

Nice quiet weekend this weekend but the next two weekends I'll be heading to my place in NH at the lake and then to a big ole beach party at the Cape with some friends. Be leaving Friday night and on saturday while Branch$$$ is getting yelled at because the cargo van smells like cheese I'll be a six pack deep. Get that cheese smell out Branch$$$ or else esqi will go down and they will be moving you on out.

LOL!!

Well its dangerous to text and drive,
I'm out!

I'm all for goals. Realistic goals. You goal is akin to saying that my goal is to hit the powerball for $300 million. Not very likely. As for fun evenings, my firm has a luxury box at Fenway and the Garden, not to mention or "Wine Downs" every Friday afternoon. However, since I get out at 4 on Friday's I don't attend them. There is also no shame on my face. That look is called elation for leaving ERAC, which I did of my own volition.

The only "look of shame" mentionable is when someone asks you where you work, just to make conversation, and you have to tell them "Enterprise Rent-a-Car," and then cringe as you brace yourself for the response, "Oh, like the 'we'll pick you up' commercials? That's you?" I'm still embarrassed to say I worked there, and it was only as a part-time job during college.

And if you really are that proud of working for Enterprise, then I just hope the Kool Aid buzz wears off sooner than later. Enjoy bowling with co-workers on a Friday night, now that's really one hell of a way to get a weekend going.

the worst thing is picking somebody up that you knew or went to high school with
i was soo embarrassed when i picked up this chic i knew from school...in school i was big shit jock boy.
at this point i was a glorified taxi driver/washer/professional bitch and she was a sucessful pharma rep.
this was proly the lowest part of my tenure, realizing what i had become in my shitty white shirt and tie
damn that story honestly makes me shake my hands, in such a better place now

I've been working at ERAC for 8 months and I'm ready to grill. My ARM told me he already that he has an AM spot ready for me once I pass the grill (which is cake). In 8 months I'm closer to that ARM position than you losers ever were (since you left before your first 6 months). But hey, I'm happy for ya'll. You found that mediocre job that supports your mediocre life goals. Way to be the best you can be!
Only the strong survive ERAC and the weak quit and sell Kirbys for a living.
I will say I like this site..I read it on my blackberry during my HOUR lunch break and lmao at the whiners, losers, and pure patheticness that post against erac. Well I got to go, I have a full boat I sold over the phone coming in at 1230.
Oh yeah, at ERAC we work hard, but we also play hard! Tonight my ARM is taking the branches bowling which also means free brew and food! Suck on that while you're eating your lean cuisine and drinking schlitz.
I'm out!

you little shit selling faggott, i work for a fire dept saving lives and property
not selling kirkbys or whatever else your BM has tricked you into believeing
don't assume everything you hear about ex-employees, the lot of them are making more money than you ever will washing cars and slinging dub to jose.

It's funny. You call someone that spams a site a loser, yet you obviously hang from B.arry's ball bag. Bro, B.arry is just as big a loser as Watie! Don't you see that? If you don't like the new ambiance of Failing E, then either pester the Admin into doing something about it, or fuck off.

How many times do you need to be told this?

;)

Friday, yippee! What a weekend coming up. Where to start...ok, so today I'll bounce from work at about 4, head home and get ready to go out with some friends for some beer and darts. Tomorrow I have some financial things to take care of for the house I just bought and then at night I am meeting up with a friend who is in town from California, good times. Then Sunday, heading down to Foxboro to the Patriots game to watch the Pats smack Joey Porter and the Dolphins in the mouth. Pound some beers, enjoy the game, more good times. At no point will I be a) working, b) talking about work to the people i am with, c)thinking about work. I will be on my time doing my things. Isn't life grand?

It's unique that this site is the first stop for most of the people who quit or get shitcanned from the big E. I guess its nice to provide an eletronic home for the cadre of MTs, MAs, and ABRMs who never tried, always convinced themselves they we're being set up to take the fall, and realized that they are a special and unique snowflake and therefore can't be held accountable for their shitty attitudes.

The thing about the E is learning to cut through the bullshit and take it as it is. Yeah, its a starter job for most employees (lets face it, no company can support an 80% management structure, so not everyone is gonna make it). And its true that all the accolades and attention go to the shining star of the moment, but that's how the real world works. Don't expect a trophy and a cash prize just for showing up; participation ribbons are for 6 year olds and mongoloids. I know a lot of you leave for the Pharma sales; do you think you'll be getting email props and a mention in the newsletter when your performance is somewhere around the 40th percentile? Probably not.

Another thing to realize is that there are a lot of shitty managers and employees at a lot of companies. Despite what Admin and the Can'tHacks want you to think, Jack and Andy don't sit in the Halls of Sorrow dreaming of new ways to torture college grads. A message gets sent from the top, and lost in translation (usually around the ARM/BRM stage). Example: Corporate/SVPs say "Cut working hours to create a more hospitable working environment for your employees." GMs and RVPs then say "You're putting too many hours on your employees, manage your personnel." ARMs then say "You're personnel is outrageous, cut it back". The shitty BRM will usually then say "You need to clock out at 6, no matter what, and count yourself out for an hour lunch that you will eat at the Callback desk." One small idea can get twisted into some horiffic, abusive practice due to a shitty manager. Or you get the smart manager who will short staff themselves to save the headache of answering the Hours question after an exit interview, and you're life is palatible.

So there you have it: some people succeed by doing the right thing, a some people do it by abusing others. Like it or not, this shit isn't particular to just E. It happens everywhere. Get used to it. You will always run into asshole managers, coworkers, subordinates, etc. They've infiltrated everything, from your corner store to the Whitehouse. Learn how to rise above (beat 'em or join 'em, whatever works for you), stop waiting for the handout or gold star you didn't earn, and remember one truly important thing:

NO ONE IS MAKING YOU FUCKING WORK HERE.

And for all the ABRMs who pose on here as former ARMs with "badass" pharmaceutical rep sales jobs (mostly effeminate dudes and ladies with spectacular racks), I'll be waiting for your posts at failingastrazeneca.com after the Dems give us bullshit national healthcare ;-). There's a reason the Canucks take tour busses over the falls in droves to pay straight cash for doctor's visits and presciptions.
