UPS guys don't have to have intelligent, persuasive discussions regarding disease states and products with their customers. UPS guys don't have "ride-alongs", "competencies" and "PMP's". UPS guys don't have evening work (i.e., testing, expense reports, business plans and other nonsense that robs you of your personal life). UPS guys may physically work hard, but they can mentally tune out and leave their job at the doorstep when they arrive home. If delivering lunch and chasing signatures were the only requirements in pharma sales, pharma companies would hire those UPS guys, duh! You are WAY oversimplifying pharma sales. Do we get to have face time with 8-10 docs everyday? No, of course not. But whenever we do, we better have a hell of a lot more to offer than what a UPS guy would.
Here's the sad news son: They already are replacing you guys with UPS drivers. Sounds like you have a hard time handling stress. Maybe you oughta hook up with the Lilly rep for some Prozac samples. You could sign his signature sheet, and he could deem it a sales call. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHa.
