"Being an intern sucks," Meredith said as she slammed her tray down on the lunch table.

"It's our first day," George said.

"That doesn't mean it doesn't suck."

"Don't complain. You're the only one here with an actual patient," Cristina said as she bitterly took a bite of her salad.

"None of you get complaining rights. I can't even eat. I had to do 17 rectal exams," Izzie said looking as though she was going to gag.

"I hate to ruin your lunch, but I do have an announcement to make," a red headed attending said as she walked over as the interns immediately sat up straighter recognizing her authority, "As you all probably know, an intern gets to perform a simple procedure on their first shift. Today, I've been able to choose that intern and I've decided to choose Dr. Grey. I'll see you in the OR at 3." She smiled and walked away from the interns.

They all turned their heads and looked over at Meredith, "Still sucks?" George asked.

"Maybe not so much."

"So what sucked so bad to begin with?" Izzie asked.

"That stupid patient is annoying me to no end and Dr. Shepherd is being an ass about it," she said, rolling her eyes and beginning to eat her lunch.

"Dr. Shepherd? I wish I were working with him. At least there would be something to look at," Izzie said smiling.

"He's married!" George said, surprised at what Izzie had said.

"And?" Izzie asked, "Looking isn't a crime."

"He's not that great to look at while he's yelling at you," Meredith said, obviously still pissed off.

"Doubtful," Izzie responded simply.
