Anyone remember JL? He was the the head of Sales, Marketing as oxy was really starting to create the opioid crisis. (I always thought he was the poster child for the commercial part of Purdue, a greedy fat, pig) Anyway, I remember him telling the Sacklers at one of those "dog and pony" year end shows. He told them "OxyContin, it sells itself" I guess he understood the addiction properties of Oxy before most, or he was an idiot, or both Anyway, I guess the Sacklers remembered it and now it is "BYE_BYE" sales force and all the HO who support those mercenaries
Ernie Merlino (RIP) was the one who told Lang to never repeat what he said. Hey Jim, please eat more red meat.
Ernie was the BEST!!! Mentor to so many!! Unfortunately, he could not keep Lang from putting his foot in his mouth (unless there was food in it)
Jim Lang WAS the reason I left Purdue Frederick in 2005 after an extremely successful career in sales. A terrible manager!
