Being forced to room with someone at meetings is so degrading and dehumanizing

Had an unknown roommate who sleepwalked one time. Saw him get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom Just had on his underpants. When he came out of the bathroom, he turned left (instead of right) and went out the door into the hotel hallway. I was momentarily stunned, then jumped up, quickly dressed, grabbed my room key, and ran out the door to find him. He was gone. I finally found him at the elevator about ready to go down to the lobby. I asked him questions about where he was going, and he responded, but made no sense. I finally coaxed him back to the room and he fell in bed. The next morning he didn't remember a thing. He said he sleep walked once when he was about six years old, but not since then. I couldn't help but wonder what would have happened if he had made it to the lobby.

I wonder if anyone else has had some strange/funny experiences with roommates.

You should have taken video on your cell phone and let it play out. That's why they invented Youtube.

I LIKE rooming with strangers. What's wrong with you? A stranger is just a friend you haven't met yet. I enjoy the sounds and smells of other people... it's all about humanity. I think that's the main reason why I have been a manager for over a decade: My ability to look beyond myself and see and understand others.

You, sir or madam, need some professional help. As your online doc, I recommend adding Lithium to your current prescription regiman and possibly some Risperdal because somethin' is not working. You belong in the Peace Corp in some 3rd world slum village, taking in sounds and smells that intrigue you so
 












Had a roommate that during a meeting drank martinis, all night. That person came back to our room, drunker than a pig, and began to berate me for what I didn't know about their business and personal life and how it was pharma's fault that they put themselves out there and then got laid off at a previous job. This person then of course, fell asleep, snored and farted all night.

Woke up the next and this person didn't remember a thing....what a f***ing douche. Love roomies
 




I like it when I get a gay roomie! They never come home because they are always with their secret lovers. Its like having a room to yourself. This has happened to me twice now.
 








My suggestion... get out of the business! It sucks and will continue to suck! I was at Pfizer for 8 years, laid off and then, like a total idiot, get another job with a contracting company selling an OAB drug! Well... they terminated the contract 13 months early therefore I am out of a job AGAIN!! Being in this business is degrading and dehumanizing!

I'm not sure why, but the state director always makes me share a room with him, and he makes me sleep in a barrel with a hole cut in the side. In the morning I always wake up with a bleeding anus.

I really hope they cancel the next IEM...

my state director did the same thing to me, but he told me to wear a gimp mask
 












Cut the Masters some slack, now. They will get tantalizingly close to their pensions before the rug is jerked out from under them. You young punks should just shack up with roommates, watch porn, and have some respect for your elders
 




I hear a change is coming with regard to all this... supposedly more people on the higher ranks of career pathways get their own rooms, not just masters but PHR's and TSR's too
 




Every old fart that I have ever roomed with has ruined the bathroom with a horrible funk before I have arrived. Do these old reps get to meetings early just so they can do that?
 








Rooming with old farts has its advantages. Lights out at 9. Their snoring drowns out the heavy breathing of the whore you're banging. Up at 5, out the door by 6, meaning you can shit, shave and shower in relative peace. No worries on getting your clothes mixed up, since no one under 50 wears the Pfizer clothes they give out at meetings
