My version of 15 by 15







Yeah..I'm also right there behind you. You show 'em!! I am too afraid of losing my job, so won't be participating in your ploy but you have my full support on these anonymous boards.

I am not afraid at all of losing this pathetic excuse for a job. I am fully engaged in the 15 Guy's approach and my numbers are as strong as ever! So is the income from my second job! I'm hoping and praying for a package! You fellow Merckies are generally a pathetic bunch of scared rabbits.

FU Merck.

Our society needs more people like you.
 






It's hard to believe that i have been posting here now for over two years! My quality of life over that time has become much richer. My golf game has gotten much better and my income both Merck and non Merck have grown as well.

I'm so glad I fired Merck from a mental standpoint. It's so refreshing not having to care about this company any longer. Management lacks leadership in every way. I no longer trust any of the reps in my district especially those brown nosing S3's. I've seen those scumbags completely throw other reps under the bus and then turn around the next day with kisses and hugs for them. Complete back stabbers. It's sickening.

The old days were awesome. I actually looked forward to the meetings and seeing old friends. Now I cringe at having to be around these fools at meetings. There is probably only a couple reps in our whole area that I'm comfortable being around.

The end of the year is near. This means that Merck will be paying for my catered parties again. With all the takeaways we've had to endure, it's really a joy to screw this company back for everything I can. Senior management is doing it so I don't feel guilty doing it as well.

Didn't golf much in the last few days. I pulled my back from golfing so much over the last few weeks. Gonna get healed up and maybe go to the Orlando area after Thanksgiving to play for a few days. I think a couple buddies are gonna go and bring the wife's for a little golf/shop trip. Take care everyone!

Right! I feel sorry for you. Things are tough at Merck. Like trying to sell GM out of bankruptcy. People that are left don't really have the skills to do it. All the best people are long gone, moved on to better companies with better products. Those that are left have no were to go.
Golf well.

So true! During the merger we got an L-SP leader for our department. He brought all the department management in and asked each to give a 2 minute description of each staff member. Our area had not a single cut planned or executed during the merger - this was just to familiarize him with the staff.

Each L-MRK manager gave the descriptions - a few stars, most solid performers and the few clunkers. Then the L-SP managers give us their staff summaries. FULL of clunkers, each one sounding more incompetent than the next. One of the L-MRK managers asked WTF was up with all the clunkers, the answer was priceless. Since SGPs funding woes, regulatory troubles and lackluster stock were very public news everyone who COULD get a job somewhere else DID. That came right from their mouths. Retention bonuses quarterly for this useless group of kooks to the point where every one of them was driving some $60k+ luxury car.

Sadly, now Merck is left with such clunkers and no money to pay retention bonuses since severance comes first. FU Merck!
 












You're right I'm totally obsessed with the 15's! As a matter of fact I don't understand why you even work "15". Just stay at home until they come get your stuff! Why work at all? You have no impact on sales anyway. Look at sales performance-sales are in the tank, the field makes no difference and is only a drag on earnings. I'm all for the 15's! You seem to do less damage at home than if you are out selling. Merck could give you guys hot stoves for Eskimos and the Merck sales force would be quickly out sold by fire wood. It's awesome when you don't work,only the dregs and see ya later sales people are left at Merck. But hey, if I ever need some delivery people for lattes I'll know were to look.
Long live the 15's.
 






Have to work a little this week. I have a field visit with my manager coming up soon and need to set up the milk run for him/her. Everything is planned well in advance for a purpose. My doctors know the reason I'm coming in to talk. Discussions with nurses are all planned too. Even when we happen to "run into" a key customer, it is all planned out by me well ahead of time.

I'm just the conductor of this orchestra of charades. I will get high marks again in this field visit and my manager will tell me how much he/she enjoys coming to work with me because I'm optimistic and don't get involved in the drama that so many others in the district do. Actually, he/she has told me that working with me is a joy compared to others.

I anticipate that my manager will confide in me the charades that our DCO is having them play. He/she has told me before that as long as we make him/her look good in front of our DCO, that all he/she cares about.

I just hope I can drop him/her off early in the afternoon like the last time so I can get a quick nine holes in at the club! Hope everyone is doing well today.

It is getting old listening to someone talking about getting even and stealing from Merck. We surely have hired some very low-quality people in recent years.

I certainly would not limit that to 'recent years'. Some long-term Merck employees are among the most entitled and low-functioning employees one could ever expect to see. Embarrassing...
 












All these 15s thieves will steal from their employers regardless of where they work. They will always say their employers are bad and exploit them. These thieves will always say the best way to get back at their bosses is to steal and steal more. They see themselves as doing the right thing. They see themselves as correcting a twisted form of injustice.

God saves our country.
