Irritable Project Syndrome (IPS)
Occurs when most members of a project team get extremely crabby and short-tempered due to shifting deadlines, impossible deliverables, inadequate resources, or insurmountable constraints. Symptoms include snarky comments, mean emails, shouting matches, escalations, increased absenteeism, sleeplessness, and catatonic withdrawal. Treatment can include alcohol, complaining/venting to your peers, turning off electronic devices, long vacations, and no longer giving a damn.
