How to make a lawyer's heart stop

Easy.

Have a senior partner call you and say: "Excuse me but I was reviewing this draft complaint and I noticed that these transactions go back to August of 1999. Do we have a statute of limitations problem?"

GULP. "Um, boss, er, uh. [pause to think for a second] What case are you talking about?"

"Oh, sorry. Rang the wrong guy"

Right. Thanks. Put heart back in chest.

Ouch.

At least it was the wrong guy. You'll recover, sure it'll take several adult beverages, but you'll recover. The other guy, possibly not so much.

Good to see that your stress level is staying at a nice, even keel...
