Hey! This sausage tastes like... uh, chicken?

More fun at drug rep lunches:


Mr. Pharmastud: "I brought pepperoni and sausage pizzas, I hope you like them. I don't like the other kind myself."

Dr. Grumpy: "What other kind?"

Mr. Pharmastud: "The ones with only veggies. Veterinarian style."

Dr. Grumpy: "You mean vegetarian."

Mr. Pharmastud: "Um, yeah".

  1. Perhaps Phamastud is sampling his wares?

  2. HA HA HA. Snort. Last time one of our reps brought pizza in to our hospital, I think he brought two plains, two pepperonis, and two veggies. ALL of it was "veterinarian style" as far as I'm concerned.

  4. The image that springs to mind is the veterinarian telling an owner

    "i'm sorry but we couldnt save mr wiffles, but here is a complimentary rabbit pizza"

  5. Amazing. Truly amazing when you realize how much $$ those reps make. Guess English is not a required course.

  6. Is this the same rep that believes your son and daughter are identical twins?

  7. No! no! no!

    Veterinarian pizza comes in puppies or kittens.

    Sheesh! Where do they GET these people?

    >:p

  8. Veterinarian Style - does that come topped with kibbles 'n bits and snausages?

    I guess that would be the doggy-style pizza.

    Not interested, thanks.

    But if you have something in a nice seafood pizza, I could go for that.

    p.s Cats rule, dogs drool!

  9. Do we have a neurologist style, too? Or, was he talking about veterans?

  10. "Neurologist style" pizza was withdrawn from the market due to the topping tending to cause Jakob's Disease.

  11. I am soooo disillusioned! Pharmaceutical salespeople are the most highly paid -- supposedly they are the cream of the crop and hiring prerequisites are terribly high...

  12. LOL!
    Veterinarian, Veteran, Vegetarian, Vermillion, Vermont, Virtuoso, same thing.

    Just like generic and geriatric! :)

  13. How appropriate that a drug rep is pushing meat and eschewing veggies. Was there a side of his company's statin, by any chance?

  14. Yeah, what was this stellar individual selling? I don't think I would trust it. He's probably making twice what I'll ever make as a chaplain.

  15. As my daughter, "Rides bike with eyes closed" would say,"Happy Veterinarian's Day!" When she saw my confused look, she followed up with, "Weren't you a veterinarian, Mommy?" To which I replied after snorting my coffee all over the table at Steak & Shake, "Veteran, honey. Veteran."

    Just so you know, we also refer to her as "Blonde in another life." ;)

  16. Dude. Veterinarian = likes animals = doesn't eat animals = vegetarian. It was a "joke."

    I'm pretty sure at least 10% of your "look-how-dumb-they-are" posts are just people intentionally trying to draw a smile out of you.
