Is this part time gig really a fulltime gig?

[anonymous]

Why do I feel like I am working fulltime with this job, when it is supposed to be a part time gig? and this is during training now - what about when we get out into the field - will field work turn out to be a full time job?

Welcome to contract sales. Work full-time for part-time pay!

Not me Jack. I don't need it that bad. This is a second job for me. So far this has all been bullshit, and I'm counting down to telling them to shove it.

It's definitely been full-time so far with less-than-part-time pay. I thought legally hourly employees had to be paid for EVERY hour they worked!

You are absolutely correct! However, you are not considered an hourly employee.

Checked with friend in HR...we're not supposed to be working more hours than is specified in the contract.

Come on people stop complaining if you were able to find a full time pharna gig you would have done so. Just be grateful to have a job. Some of us have been unemployed and are happy to be working and you have to utilize all opportunities to pad your resume and even do some networking, relax and enjoy the blessing considering there werer over 3000 resumes received and only 260+ positions and we were chosen. so just shut the f up

I was told this job was per call even though my offer letter states that it is 3 days/8 hrs per week. Does anyone know which one it is? I have another job and was under the impression that as long as we get the required calls in then that is all that matters. Also does anyone know if we have to get a signature for a detail only call in case we run out of samples? I know in my past experience physicians frowned upon this.

We were told on the SFA call that we would not be getting signatures for detail only calls.
