Do you think they hire boring people to be reps? If you were in charge of hiring the most effective people for this job, who would you hire?

My replacement.

I'd want to hire people who are knowledgeable about pharmaceuticals and are able to accurately and intelligently answer questions about research studies and side effects. But an effective person would probably hire hot chicks and chatty dudes and give them big expense accounts.

Prostitutes and stand-up comedians. I'd also make an exclusive club at the airports for doctors who sell my drugs.

For the record, my relative is very good looking and fun to hang out with.
