I see you have an eye for detail. To motivate you to read this long post, here are two drug reps mentioned in the articles below.





The first article is the one that inspired my “worldwide network of blond drug reps” comment. I was doing a lot of research on cancer treatment options around the time this came out. I came across several hundred articles detailing the corrupt practices of the medical-pharmaceutical-regulatory complex — mostly by just reading the cancer treatment related news diligently every day.

Gimme an Rx! Cheerleaders Pep Up Drug Sales

As an ambitious college student, Cassie Napier had all the right moves -- flips, tumbles, an ever-flashing America's sweetheart smile -- to prepare for her job after graduation. She became a drug saleswoman.

Sex Sells - Winning Sales Quota by Banging Doctors

In 2012, Insys hired a new sales executive: Sunrise Lee, a Florida escort service manager and former strip club dancer with no academic degree, according to Guzman’s complaint. Burlakoff allegedly defended the decision, claiming, “Doctors really enjoyed spending time with her and found Sunrise to be a great listener.” He added, “She’s more of a closer.”

The regional sales manager reported that the new employee was “dumb as rocks, but that she was sleeping with another doctor and getting a lot of prescriptions out of him.”
