How many drug reps does it take ...

... to screw in a light bulb?

Six. One to screw it in and five to pretend they did it.

Das ist schon recht effizient. Denn:
How many pharmaceutical executives does it take to screw in a light bulb?

Seven
1. One to screw in the light bulb;
2. One to file a patent for “A method for insertion of a light-emitting glass fixture into a power source by rotational motion”;
3. One to create an ad encouraging consumers to “Ask your electrician if SuperBright XR is right for you”;
4. One to sue the manufacturers of cheaper, longer-lasting, but equally bright, compact fluorescent light bulbs;
5. One to launch an awareness campaign for Chronic Darkness Syndrome;
6. One to testify before Congress against government negotiation on the price of light bulbs; and
7. One to lobby against the importation of cheaper Canadian light bulbs.

And one more to find a scientifc expert, who proves cost-effectiveness of light bulb in comparison with sunlight.
