Turning in teammate for falsified call

Why don't you confront him first and ask for an explanation? It may very well be an error, as in he had the wrong person sign for a sample, he is mistaking one hcp for another, etc. YOU will look like the jerk if you are filing a complain on a coworker who is making an honest mistake. We are not judged on calls per day so in all honestly I wouldn't know what the motivation would be to falsify a call. I have never once been asked why I only made only 3 calls ( which is reality some days) on a certain day because my manager and rbd know my pod and I are out there working hard.

Run it by him first, and if it persists talk to your dbm.

Falsifying a call is never just one call. It goes against the NNI way and speaks to ones integrity and erodes the trust within a POD. If you are certain then call AskHR. Do not confront rep. You do not need to notify DBM but you can. If you decide to call AskHR you will remain anonymous. I would always assume the best of intentions however if you have seen a pattern then it may be appropriate to act.

You will remain anonymous? hahahahahahahahhahahahahahahahahahah
 




Entitlement doesn't begin to describe it. And I have talked to him in the past. About the same thing. I am pretty sure most people would buy me a round of drinks if he were sent out of the door. I am not jealous, I am tired of working with someone who does nothing but put on a show while throwing everyone else under the bus. And putting a call in on a doc who hasn't worked at that location in or in territory for over a year? More than once the? Good luck. You deserve to be found out. Call me whatever you want, if this was your partner, you'd do it too. Or maybe you've been lucky enough never to have a nightmare partner before.

I'm actually siding with the OP on this one. We've all entered false calls, I have entered false calls. But, it sounds like this persons counterpart isn't working at all and making this a weekly habit, and that's not right. Our partners affect our performance and territory and ultimately our reviews, if someone's not working at all it needs to be brought up. I would go above the manager, as historically the reps who try to get away with this seem to always have their manager blinded as well. Why would the OP be an idiot or be the bad guy for trying to fix this? Wouldn't the rep not working be the idiot? Everyone on here has strong words until it happens to them. Just saying.

WRONG!!!

No one likes a snitch. They should just keep their mouth shut, head down, and just do their own job. If someone is off doing who knows what, it will eventually catch up to them.

You're an idiot. "Keep their mouth shut" while their loser partner does nothing? And are you really using the word "snitch"? Are we in South Central LA or 5th grade or something? So you're saying it's OK for a teammate to do nothing while you bust your ass?, ok got it. You are as big a useless piece of shit as this person's loser counterpart.
 








The fake call guy sucks. The fake call caller outer is an asshole and is everything wrong with pods and pharma. Obviously has never had a real job where you work alone and are accountable for results alone. Nobody will touch you for a real job coming from a pod system. Who cares what this other person does, you should work like you're alone, pull your weight instead of being a finger pointing pod dweller. Jealousy comes from insecurity which comes from within. If you were any good you wouldn't care, you'd do your job and let them hang themselves.

So true.

He's your partner?
He knows your secrets too.
Cheat on a test?
Spoke one product logged in 2?
Left early to do whatever?
Sold off label?
Left home at 9? 9:30?
Smoked weed?
Back dated calls?
Changed time on a call?


Goes around comes around. The instant you report him, you will be the 2nd person investigated.

If not the first.
 








My teammate faslsified a call and I want to turn him in. My fear is that is won't be investigated if I send it to my manager- he is the manager's pet. There is really no way to get out of this one either. If mgmt wants to go thru my calls as part of an investigation - be my guest. Should I report it directly to mgr or HR? Is there another way to report it and remain anonymous? Has anyone ever reported it, and it's gone nowhere?

Tattle tale. Like you've never entered a false call. If I were your partner I'd have a lawyer contact Novo and subpoena your call records for falsification. Bitch
 




Don't do it!!! My partner was my DMs favorite, but behind the scenes he was totally unethical, lying, thieving jackhole. I turned him in and had 10+ falsified calls documented. I didn't feel good about it, but I was tired of all his drama & games. Honestly, I was hoping he would get fired and it would make my life easier. HR investigated the whole pod but my partner stayed on. I think he might have lost his bonus bc they put him on probation, and that just made him hate me even more. Anyway, everyone was on their best behavior for about 3 months (non-retaliation period), and then my 2 pod mates and DM made my life hell. Even though I reported it anonymously, my DM told me he was furious bc of all the extra work the investigation made him do, and he didn't need a "troublemaker" like that on his team. He put me in charge of every task, project, conf call, speaker program, I got surprise ride alongs with the trainer, my DM even left early on a 2day ride along and forced me to spend a 3rd day with him. It was even worse than just dealing with the previous BS...I eventually quit on my own terms b/c I was so miserable. The whole incident put a huge target on my back. The rules don't apply to everyone. Life isn't fair. Keep your mouth shut and keep documenting!
 












What about managers who state they had a full day but leave at 2. It's all relative you moron

Exactly!

I had a manager that had a 6 hour drive to get from the city she where lived to my territory. She used to schedule two consecutive days once a month for ride along's. On the second day, she wouldn't ride with me in my car, instead she'd always follow me in her car to my offices. On the second day, usually at about 11AM, she'd say "I've got a good sense of where you're at and how things are going with you, so I don't need to be going to any more offices with you today. See you in a month." I bet you can easily guess where she was going.....
 




So...Im curious did the OP blow the whistle yet. I hate to say im curious as to the result but I am. I would like to burn a few of my fellow dead weight partners that have been riding my leg for years. Please keep us in the loop!

Just go do YOUR job. You are wasting time on this? Why is this so important to you? How much company time are YOU wasting trying to catch your partner making a mistake. Yes this could be a simple mistake. Do something productive and learn how to communicate instead of trying to get someone fired. You are supposed to be their partner not their boss. So help yourself and them out by telling them you noticed a call for this person on that date and I sure they would appreciate you more. If they don't take it the manager to coach him.
It sounds like you are intimidated and jealous of his relationship with your boss.
 




I saw a partner steal $900 worth of wine (unopened bottles) and food from a dinner program. I turned that botch in... everyone in the POD hated her bc she was a bully to
us and rude to our offices ...I was a hero
to everyone including my RD (who didn't like that slacker either) It depends on the situation.

So you are kind of like a hero? Is that what you are telling us?

Hey sonny, the only thing you turned in was your janitors mop and shoe shine box.
