No motivation

Anonymous

Guest
I used to get so motivated when we had sales contests and new bonus plans...now it's just same old bonus plan, no contests (besides pres club which is not even what it used to be).

Is anyone else feeling this way?
 






I know what you mean, sometimes I feel like sitting in my garage, with the door shut, windows rolled down and leaving the car running.

It makes me happy doing this, you should try it
 






What the hell is wrong with you people? Bitching that you have no motivation? This would be a great time for you to quit, get out of sales, and get a job that isn't commissioned based. A lot of people would love to be where you are, and stay motivated. Are you a child? I have a two war old that I need to motivate to do the right thing, why does Shire need to do the same for you? 4 times a year you get motivation. Every other week you get motivation. Everytime you start your free car, gas it, maintain it, and not pay car insurance, that's motivation. Stock options, paid vacation, medical benefits, I mean seriously!!!

Stop dragging everyone down with your negative BS. Go to work, and shut the F up.

Typical moronic RD response.. The company is perfect...Go to work and shut the F up...
 






Working for Shire is rough. Nothing motivates. Not contests, bonus (or lack thereof), or even the occasion success story left on Voicemails. Odd enough, poa's always seemed to re-energize me for at least a couple days. ADHD will always be ADHD, maybe it's time to move on. Shire tricks you into believing you make a difference, but in reality we are all glorified caterers. Just be happy to get a paycheck and look for better opportunities as you work. Good luck.

I totally agree. I really do like my job. I have awesome offices and I think my RD is doing a great job...and yes, I am a rep!

IMO, it seems like the people griping are spoiled as hell. We will all have "yuck" days but if you can't mix fun and work while working your territory...leave! People with negative attitudes can destroy any company or sales team!

Oh now mrs mini van Volvo disgruntled employee wants to be the cheerleader now with Her wonderful motivational speech!!!! Sweet, and thanks but we all know u don't ur ass. And for motivating ur 2 year old, well its u job as a parent!!! That's what parents do with their kids!! And if u were a top proformer u would get that!!!! We like to be recognized we like to be motivated to go out there and WiN!! But u haven't a clue !
 






The motivation is gone because the competition has been removed from our company. Yasick is very similar to our current President. He wants to be liked and he wants to spread the wealth. His ideas are flawed and he has destroyed our company. I think he has a great mind for marketing. We would have been better off if he would have stayed out of sales.
 






It's funny how in 2 separate posts I've been referred to as an RD, or a woman bitching about a Volvo or a mini-van. Well neither is correct. But it's funny how if anyone posts anything that the majority don't agree with, people automatically assume that either r
Above referenced people must be the culprit.

And in regards to my need to motivate my child being my
Job as a parent, you're right. But as an adult it is your job to motivate yourself. But perhaps you aren't an adult. Maybe you're just some little kid, wanna-be professional, that just thinks the world owes him/her everything. Or maybe you're the idiot that wants us to ditch suits. Either way, wake up kid. It's a different world out there. It's a different economy and a much different Pharma Industry. Nobody owes you anything.

And just because I posted any of my comments does NOT mean that I am not concerned with what's happening with our company, so don't make that accusation either. I don't like these conference calls where they give you just enough info to make you more concerned than how how you felt prior. But, I am motivated. And I'm not an RD nor am I some woman looking for a Volvo or a minivan.

You need Hooked on Phonics or a grammar class! I'd hate to see the "chicken scratch" on your sample forms. Whew!!!
