> Is there a more arrogant profession (collectively) than medicine? Surgery?

  Oh god. I was playing hockey a few weeks back with some new guys and at the end of the games, we started shooting the shit. I asked the goalie what he did for work: "I'm a doctor". "Oh cool, my brother is a doctor as well." "Where?" "<some hospital>" "Oh, I work there as well. What department?" "<the department>" "Oh, haha, I'm a surgeon" I lost it laughing.

      There is a hierarchy among medical professionals. I just couldn't help laughing at the way this guy said "oh, haha, I'm a surgeon."
