Ed Silverman, please stop all the great posts! Go back on vacation…I have to get some work done!
Ed has posted a series of Merck sales training videos over at Pharmalot (see “The Vioxx ‘V’ Squad: Reps From Another Universe“). The videos were revealed in documents related to the Vioxx trials.
This brings me back to my days as a developer of video and computer-based sales training programs. But that’s another story.
Not only are these videos hilarious, their release to the public is a real “boner,” meaning “a spectacularly bad or embarrassing mistake,” which is the second definition of the term found on Wikipedia.
But I’d like to point out a different kind of “boner” I found by pausing the first video at just the correct spot. See the image below.
