<span style='font-size: 14pt'> <span style='font-family: Georgia'> <span style="color: #990000"> bailey can't be chief.  she is still a resident albiet the chief surgical resident.  the chief of surgery can only be selected from the attendings ~~~ one with-experience & a good professional reputation....addison, burke, derek, & mc steamy.  you just don't jump from residency to the top attending spot with-o doing your time.  the chief did tell her a few weeks ago that if she was 10yrs further along she'd be his first choice & that it would happen down the road.  now is just not a possibility tho.


the writers haven't forgotten a thing.  that is what makes derek's struggle so poingnant.  we all know how much he loves meredith, what he's sacrificed for her,  but he's looking at giving up his lifelong dream to be chief of surgery *someplace*.  


nothing is ever easy for the characters on this show.  there is alway conflict....both external & internal.
