Can You Spot the Join?

Today's "strange but true" entry is presented courtesy of Newham General Hospital and is about their management of their out-patient appointment system.

They plan their out-patient clinics weeks and weeks and months and months ahead. When you make an appointment, it might be for a clinic in sixteen weeks time. OK, you might not like the wait, but at least you're on the way. So, in the diary it goes and you get on with the day job.

Meanwhile, back in the hospital, the doctor you are supposed to be seeing is only required to give six weeks notice for his leave application.

Notice anything odd??
