The Plot Thickens

So I found out why Carol has been out all week. She told Dr. Olson that she was in a bad car accident and was taken to St. Anthony's Central. Remember that hospital it comes into play later in the story. So on Fridays the office is only open from 9-12 so Dr. Olson and I spend a lot of time talking and doing nothing basically. Well this past Friday was no different. I was sitting at my computer doing what is now my favorite thing to do when I am bored. Since I work for a surgeon and he needs to get operative reports from hospitals we have a computer program that lets us get onto the databases at all sorts of different hospitals. The cool thing about that is that I can go on these sites and look at uploaded picutres of all sorts of different surgeries. You can also look up patients and read all the imaging and lab reports. So as I am sitting there doing this Dr. Olson comes in and asks to use the computer. So I move and let him do what he needs to do. Meanwhile the new issue of People has arrived at the office...my other favorite thing about Friday. When he is finished he gets up and walks out of the room and doesn't say a word. So now that I have the computer back I go back onto St. Anthony's site and am going to look up another patient so I can see some more surgery pictures. I go to the patient list and notice something strange. Carol's name is at the top of the list which means she was the last patient to be looked up. Dr. Olson was looking to see if and when Carol had been in the hospital. So being me, which means being very curious I click on her name and what do I see.........Carol has not been to St. Anthony's since November of last year!!!! And now Dr. Olson knows this. But also being sometimes logical me I figure she might have gone to a different hospital so I use our fun computer program to look at all the other hospitals in the area knowing that Carol lives around there. I guess Dr. Dennis is logocal too because he did the same thing. So as I am doing this what do I see........Carol hasn't been to any hospital reccently. "But Rachel", you say, "What if Carol is telling the truth but she just didn't go to the hospital?" That is entirely possible but she still lied about it so clearly something fishy is still going on. "Rachel",you say again,"Does that mean Carol is finally in trouble or fired?" The answer is nope. of course not. Meanwhile the extern is still there doing Carol's job and not getting paid. You know on the one hand I hpe she keeps doing crap like this because the odds of me getting hired go up dramatically but on the other hand I would like to know how to do this job right. Monday is going to be super awkwad if Carol does show up. Can't wait to see what happens.
