Interesting. I'm going to need to hear from more people if I'm going to buy that's standard, though.

There's established medical acronyms like "Funny Looking Kid" or "Get Out Of My ER". The stress thing depends heavily on specialty once out of residency, and a stressful job can actually mean more story time once they're done with a patient - just ask a paramedic.
