...the person forces reps to buy and use a clipboard to hold resources when talking to customers, forces reps to buy bins and index folders to put in their trunk to hold resources that this manager wants alphabetized, whispers what they want the reps to say in their ears while they are trying to talk to customers, holds teleconferences prior to 8 am in the morning, will make reps stay out after 5 pm on field visits if reps don't see enough customers, rarely encourages reps on field visits and quick to point out reps' faults, reps observe dozens of their district mates quit or get fired within the year the manager takes over the district and unsurprisingly, the manager ranks last in sales performance for the entire company. You really know how to pick some one of a kind managers FSC Leadership. Money well spent, if you are desperate and clueless.

That jackass sales director before Joe B. took over hired GP and he was a corporate psychopath too. I think his name was Jim. That guy drove off a lot a reps too when he was the sales director before he retired.
 






...she tells the lie it is corporate policy to copy her on every email you send to people in headquarters. GP just wants to control everything her reps do which is why some of them left , yet HR does nothing.
 






...she knows she can get away with treating reps like children in a sweatshop because HR and her sales director are afraid to touch her because of age, sex and race.
