Do applicants have to sign some “loyalty oath” or something similar?
Do you have to be a junior whack job to be qualified?

Maybe Tiahrt could offer these interns his reflections on the incident? Maybe some talks on how to lie more successfully? (Hint: stack the room with idiots next time.)
The line was ‘the govt. will be setting the wages for doctors (or was it interns?).
