The work at Merck is mostly invented and phoney...Makes about as much sense as a John Lennon acid trip...

No one with any self respect would stay in this SH&thole of a company...

seriously, what type of person continually takes the abuse year after year...Either no self esteem or totally deluded that this is a "career."

Even the precious S3s will find themselves up a creek, once they are used up by Merck
and get older...

Only makes sense for the old to stay, as they are close to retirement. If you are young, run as fast as you can and never ever look back!

Old starts at 55 or over. For anyone 40-50, the employment is about the same as the typical 30 something. Some consider 40s prime.

Shit, this means I'm old. All I have to show for it is 40 years at Merck. I wonder what could have been.

there is no way to look back on the years spent in Merck as a pharma rep as anything but a waste of time...You just don't see it when you are younger because you enjoy the money, the free car, and the flexible schedule...you also don't mind taking crap from the idiotic district "managers" when you are younger...

it all becomes painfully clear at somepoint...everyone will eventually have there "a hah" moment and realize they have been swindled...

The title of the thread is more appropriate for "Apocalypse Now", given our condition.

correction - the car is not "free" - its their choice, not yours - and check your pay stub - you DO pay a good portion of that fleet lease.
