Reminiscing about times long ago. The honorable Merck sent $50 to purchase the Thanksgiving turkey and $150 for a Christmas bonus. Yes true .Those were the days and it is true!
You can get a few shekels for that on Ebay...I sold that and all my other Merck memorabilia to take the bad taste out of my mouth from working for that nasty, evil company.
I came across the Wall Street page that listed all salaried employees working at Merck. A thank you for attaining the Most Admired Company. What a Great company!!!
When was that from? 1988? Sears was once a terrific department store too...jeez... hope you're not being serious?
Totally serious, yearly stock options in the thousands and quarterly stock options in the hundreds made a fortune.
The old days are gone, save your money and have a backup plan. Older reps know what I mean, millennials are living in a dream world.
Remember that the last ten days of December were company time off added to regular vacation time. Those were the days!
