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.

1 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.

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