Hey jealous HQ person.
Is your job driving between accounts all day or sitting at a desk? Why would you need a company car ? (that we pay for in payroll deductions and taxes anyway).
Do you have an actual lunch break or expected to work straight through?
Great post! We recently conducted an audit of an East Coast sales manager who was racking up high monthly car wash receipts. It appeared he was getting his car washed every 3 days! In reality, he was charging his wife's and daughters' car washes on his business expense account - - - talk about scam and a cheapskate!! Well he was forced to repay Abbvie for the bogus washes and we heard he is meeting with HR to determine future employment status. This is probably the tip of the iceberg in sales managers/reps ripping off our company.I work in Accounting and you would not believe the wine/alcohol expenses at the NSMs! This crap has to be stopped. I would cancelled all new fleet car orders and give the reps a stipend of $200 per month to lease their business cars.

I guess you bean counters in accounting forget that sales people produce revenue to pay your salary.
About the only thing you produce is shit and piss.
So let me get this straight - - - you pay out of your personal pocket auto insurance like the rest of the employees at HQ?!? You don't over order customer lunch items for your personal consumption at home?!? You get a flat tire driving little Susie to soccer practice and you pay for roadside assistance and a new tire out of your personal pocket?!? You work at least 40 hours per weak like the rest of the employees at HQ?!? Tell you what, reps are lazy and overpaid employees.
a $75k accounting education and that’s the best you could come up with?
Lol 75k? These people probably couldn’t even pass an online course. Sounds like someone is jealous they don’t have the personality to leave their cubicle and sell.
Pharma reps aren't really salespeople. Someone referred to a pharma rep as a customer service representative and that would be an accurate description of the position. You really do not need a college degree to perform this job. Give me a homeless bum and 50K and in 3 years he/she will be a top performing abbviE rep.
Be honest, do you really believe you sell? Over 60% of US MDs do not see pharma reps. That number will increase in the near future and Rx plans are determining what a doc can actually prescribe. Old business model that needs to be retired.Lol 75k? These people probably couldn’t even pass an online course.

Software could retire lowly accountants any day of the week
The second a pharma rep believes that he/she is a salesperson they become a liability to the company. Moreover, a pharma rep should never be engaged in a clinical discussion about a medicine with a physician. Not today’s pharma rep anyway.
Once again bean counter showing how removed you are from the world. If we are given clinical studies to sell from then those discussions are within compliance. Now get back to your quick books training.
