Jennifer Bradford thought it absurd when Dr. Julian Caldicott diagnosed her as a classic case of severe Type A behavior. In fact, she didn't understand why Future Visions magazine was so concerned about stress and burnout in its employees. Her record as assistant feature editor was untarnished. Besides, these were acceptable hazards of a job, especially in high-tech Los Angeles.
