Everyone has heard of the collective nouns for various groups. Take a look here:

Along those lines, there are collective nouns for occupations. What is your occupation and what would the collective noun be?
These are some that came from the Patrick O'Brain forum:
A brief of lawyers
A rash of dermatologists
A stream of urologists
A tally of accountants
A breath of pulmonologists
Here's one I thought up:
A shift of truck drivers
Now, what other one's are out there? I have a couple for arborists but I'll bet that someone else will come up with the same.
