    Are you an automaton?

    Hi Dr. Canisign, it is nice to meet you (robot voice) - my name is Joe Automaton, I'm a pharmaceutical sales rep with Pfizer.....

    au·tom·a·ton -

    1. a mechanical figure or contrivance constructed to act as if by its own motive power; robot.

    2. a person or animal that acts in a monotonous, routine manner, without active intelligence.

    3. something capable of acting automatically or without an external motive force.

    WE ARE ALL SALES AUTOMATONS

    "One of the most horrible, yet most important, discoveries of our age has been that, if you really wish to destroy a person and turn him into an automaton, the surest method is not physical torture, in the strict sense, but simply to keep him awake, i.e., in an existential relation to life without intermission."

    -W.H. Auden

    Sounds like being a Pfizer rep to me...I'm been living in suspended animation for almost a decade here
