Schering-Plough's E-Mail Training: "Irony -- THAT'S for ME!"


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

UPDATED: 05.05.09 AM

Did this fellow speak yesterday? Will he speak today? His bio still reads "to come" on the Conference website -- yet the Conference is going on now -- do we have any "e-porters" in that audience, today?

Post a comment -- if you're there, or know someone who is! Thanks -- Condor

Sometimes, no words will suffice (Huge "Hat Tip" to Marilyn Mann!).

Sometimes, only images are needed:



The first image above (click each to enlarge!), is from an upcoming seminar-web-flyer in Princeton, New Jersey; the second one (below) is from Schering-Plough's internal e-mail accounts. And, if you are new around here, here is the background story on it:



"A pr!ck. . . . f' himself. . . ." -- Indeed. The web-flyer reads, rather preposterously:
. . . .Get Control of your E-Mail!. . . .

. . . .impact of. . . inappropriate email. . . avoid litigation. . . .

Schering-Plough. . . .

At last count, some 145 separate, pending lawsuits -- against Schering-Plough, and/or its officers and directors -- revolve around various aspects of the above e-mail exchange.

Fish. Barrel. Shoot. Repeat.

[Something more substantive, tomorrow -- I promise.]

True -- and he will be making admissions -- to the extent that he says the Veltri emails were "inappropriate" or even "unfortunate".

These will be admissions that can be used -- as evidence -- in the class action litigation, by the plaintiffs.

Any bets on how many plaintiffs' lawyers will now register for this Q & A session?

It should be rich -- and rife with dangerous pitfalls -- for the Schering-Plough IT guy doing the talking.

I suspect he'll be pulled from the agenda -- when Lowenstein, Sandler and Dechert, LLP get wind of this.
