One one of these discussion threads, somebody made reference to "Home Made/Baked Bread", and several remarkers remarked that they had no idea what the original poster was saying...
In the pharma world, "Home Made/Baked Bread" is an industry slang for salespieces and promotional items which are not company marketing department, let alone FDA, approved for use in the field with prescribing medical professionals to promote the sales of ethical drugs.
In short, if you are a drug-rep who has been accused of using "homemade bread" you are being accused of distributing sales/promotional materials which you have 'cooked-up' on your own time, using your own resources, going outside the legally-bound marketing department and the FDA, and creating your own, individual sales-promotional items from your personal computer and printer and/or using clinical studies for promotion which have not been approved and disseminated by your company's marketing department.
I've done it before, to VERY good effect and reward, with a completely lame and incompetent legal department at a pharma company which no longer exists. At that time and place the risk of termination proved to ABSOLUTELY be worth the danger. I won a company paid trip to a very desirable destination in the Far East which I would never be able to afford, otherwise.
You need to weigh in your mind how badly you need your current job and if the risk of termination is worth it. I was kinda reckless, back in the day, and I got away with it, with substantial reward, but I would tend to caution you younger guys with families away from trying that path.
The short-term gain in market share/TRX weighed against your livelihood and keeping your bills covered would tend to speak against using "Home Made Bread".
