      job is impossible. a 250 mile travel day and how many places do you have to stop in this exodus. do you have to see someone at these stops and how long are you supposed to stay at each one. what if they're out to lunch or at one of those "meetings" at which company department managers stage just to kill of time for the most part. and when you get there what is your role exactly. to sell something, service something, what? why does your company need a door to door representative. it doesn't add up especially the amount of money they pay you to drive around all day basically.

        250 mile ZONE, as in RADIUS.

        I have a buddy who teaches surgeons how to use his company's devices and the fukker works like 8 days a month and makes serious bank. He stared out as a nurse.

        Kraken could have something great here, he is not giving enough info.

            if this a legit job he should take it. appears he has no job now. posts all day and night. family overrated. kids only want to stare at those machines you get them. harmony with wife usually runs it's course after 7 years or so. take the job. welcome respite from that marriage and a family crap.

              $250,000 on internet forums translates to about $25,000.

                  I do that now man. It's not worth it. Puts strain on marriage, makes it tough on getting "family" duties done (not dirty, things like lawn, house work, etc)

                  You can of course outsource much of that but then you just give away more if your paycheck.

                  If seriously want more discussion feel free to pm me. Been traveling 80% for 8 years now. Know all about the money and benefits. Wouldn't recommend it but I obviously did it so.......

                    hmm every other week youd have to see family???

                    probably not a good idea as that is too much for you

                    try for every 3rd week see family and itll fit you better

                          With all due respect I got a job offering last month that paid 1.5 million a year and I got fired for banging the bosses wife... I love these internet stories!!!

                          Dude you do Jits, Boxing and yoga and post on this forum with the rest of your free time.. You aren't even that good of a gambler as you only have a 100 bet points showing.. You live in Oakland, Ca and are a black dude also.. You were also just posting for attention this entire last week with thread starts left and right..

                          Gotta call a spade a spade - I smell a fabrication brewing in the mists of SBR.. ..

                          Are you shipping drugs for the Mexican Cartel once a week or something from State to State for that quarter mill?



                          If I'm wrong please forgive... Usually not though on these types of things.. I sniff shit out with the best of them!!

                            obviously no info to give. can you imagine a company paying a quarter of a million dollars a year to someone to basically drive around and call on accounts. one guy covering 12 states every other week and during his easy week only 250 miles a day calling on the "local" accounts. lots of oil changes later....

                              250 is going rate (base + commission) for an established medical sales professional with about 70% travel.

                                Base salary for year 1 is 150k, 180k for year 2 and thereafter

                                There is one more small promotion starting year 3 as I would become "Sr. xxxx" byt that only includes more stock options

                                As far as the $250,000, I've know the three people doing this job for years now, and that is a max number that they've hit 3 out last 4 years, the 4th year they made 220,000...

                                Its a lot of travel if I accept it, includes 12 states, and is rapidly growing.it is a medical device company in a sub-specialty procedural department think Cardiothoracic Surgery.

                                Im flying to Boston next week for an interview with the execs, if I accept they want me to start by March 1

                                  On this one, you are wrong, but its no biggie. Really, unless you work in these sub-specialty procedural units, you'd never know this device, this job nor this company existed.

                                      Obviously nobody could answer this question but you, compared to what I do and what I make I sure the hell wouldn't do it. Sounds like too much work, and I worked hard the last 15 years so I wouldn't have to work hard ever again. Of course I don't know what your other options are and I don't know what skills you possess so this might be a fukin homerun for you so who am I to tell you what to do? The quarter mil is 3 years out and that's only a 'maybe'. If you can parlay this into something bigger and better than that changes everything. I couldn't be away from my wife for that long, and I dont have kids.
