Refecting on Pharma Reps

An overheard conversation between two Pharma reps is the launching point for this post over at Lisa Williams' place. I was struck by its lyrical tone...

I often wonder, why do the doctors agree to make appointments with them, these beautiful girls and their Powerpoints that use “impact” as a verb? Petty, I know, but it took a lot of restraint for me not to say to them, girls, if you’re going to push up the cost of healthcare, at least use proper grammar.

These girls are the rococo curlicues on the edifice of healthcare economics...

I hope this is just a preview of the kind of writing we can expect from her novel. If so, sign me up.

Thanks, Steve! I'm getting there on the novel, I'm on chapter 16 of 20. I hope the novel will be funnier.
