In my experience they sometimes give scrubs to patients for various reasons.

Idk if it's different in the US but when I went to a hospital in Canada for a broken leg they gave me scrubs and even let me keep the pants cause they were so comfy.
YMMV on the mouse problem depending on the cat.
Oh there's often plenty of reason.
Once a day isn't crazy if she doesn't eat tons of sugar.
Why the fuck would they even be thinking of letting AI make these decisions?
What, why tf wouldn't the cashier have to open the drawer? Why wouldn't they have to record the sale? They'd still have to account for the loss of inventory. Even if they did the 99 cent thing all a cashier would have to do is keep a pocket full of pennies to be able to do the exact same thing. None of that makes sense as an explanation.
You're treating that as a magic term that reflects all criticism. Being the main character doesn't mean he should be immune to any and all consequences of his actions without ever having to change and improve as a person.
Do you happen to remember who won that particular scuffle? And who had an enormous statue erected in memorial and is the most popular presidents in history? And whether slavery is in fact still legal or not?
I mean I'd also take him undergoing some actual improvement as a person, but sure that would be better than him constantly getting away with being a horrible person and it being hand-waved with "he's just too good to lose" never mind how badly he would tank the reputation of the hospital and would be more of a liability than an asset even with his talent.
There's a difference between being treated specially and having complete immunity, and I think you're a bit naive if you think talent alone is enough to protect someone's job even in the medical field. And yes, one singular talented doctor who makes 5 new enemies every time he opens his mouth would absolutely be replaceable. Do some people get treated specially in their jobs? Sure, though it's usually because of who they're friends with or who they're related to rather than their talent. But to the degree that House gets away with? He takes it to a cartoonish degree that would lead to so many lawsuits Cuddy's head would spin. Do you know how much hospital deans care about the reputation of their hospital? And no, House's success rate wouldn't prevent his patients from pursuing legal battles or tanking the hospital's reputation. House's behaviour would make him an active liability which would cancel out any benefits to gain from his talent and he wouldn't be worth giving any special treatment. But that's beside the point, I personally couldn't stand his guts and disliked how he never suffered any real consequences for his actions and that's why I stopped watching.
