    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

        I've worked with surgeons who were occasionally impolite.

          I've been around a few that could be very impolite. Been around a couple that were batshit crazy.

          Case-in-point...Had one surgeon that wore captain's bars and insisted all of the nurses and nurse anethicist wore second and first lieutenants bars. I think he thought he was the second coming of Hawkeye Pierce.

          He eventually committed suicide with a 1911 Colt.
