Worst Managers here?





























Just checking in - how's everything going in Rochester? Heard its not been the best summer for you guys??!!
Oh, not much... just the same old tired story... "We're making some new in-roads," "Thing's are really starting to turn around," "We're gaining some strong new relationships," blah... blah... blah...

Relationships? That's where Rochester is missing the mark. It is NOT about relationships. It is NOT about who can brag about being "friends" with Drs. Come on really? Do you really think that THEY want to be friends with YOU? If you or a family member are ill - would your "Dr friend" drop off a casserole? If your car broke down at midnight- would your "Dr friend" come and pick you up? If your basement floods - would they come over and bail water? Are you invited to their children's birthday party? Do you go on vacation with them?
No. No. No. No. Your definition of having a "relationship" is that Doctors MAY wave to you as they walk from one exam room to another. Oh and yeah they may be your "Facebook friend" so what.
Come on Lisa - its about the PATIENT. That's the key. Do you really think these Doctors will prescribe a particular life saving medicine because they may LIKE a rep? I sure hope not.
Rochester you are a shame to this industry.
 








some managers are tough , 2 full day ride alongs abdcothers back their reps up others don’t it all in who is your manager ...luck or bad luck of the draw . I’m sure this company will schuffle it up again

You would think that, but I’ve had the worst manager in the entire industry for 5 years now.... MLXQ!!!!!
 




























Jim Kalmes. The managed care VP. Nasty. Make sure You move your head to the left or right quickly if he hugs you. He’ll kiss you right on the lips and try to casually cop a feel of your butt. This guy has been reported to HR several times and nothing happens. This is why he’s being outed here, to protect the women he encounters. This guy is a law suit waiting to happen. Stay away from him if you can ladies. Doug, be a man and get rid of men who treat women badly!!!!
