Novartis Contractor Ran a Prostitution Ring from Work
According to a 
post at the Pharmalot blog, a contractor who worked for Novartis was charged with running a prostitution ring from his desk at the drug maker’s facility in Hanover, NJ. Luckily (for Novartis anyway) the actual ’services’ were provided at a veterinarian clinic several miles away. Novartis noted in a statement that was sent to Pharmalot that the alleged pimp “is employed by Kelly Temp Services, a company contracted to provide services to Novartis. However, he no longer works there, and the drug maker maintains that it holds employees and contractors to the highest ethical standards. Novartis also wants us to know it is cooperating with authorities, whose investigation is ongoing.”
There were a few amusing comments posted at Pharmalot. For example: one reader commented: “No doubt Novartis was impressed with his organization and managerial skills. A career in conference and events management beckons.” Another reader quipped; “Can anyone say - multi-tasking?” Finally, my personal favorite was from a guy with the nick “jobseeker” who boldly stated; “I’m looking for employment. What position did he hold?”
Hat tip to Ed at Pharmalot!
Until next time…
Good Luck and Good Job Hunting (I hear that there is a contractor opening at Novartis)!!!!!!!!
