Mandatory Training Session Tonight
You are hereby notified that you have a mandatory training session this evening. At 9/8c, you are required to tune in to your local NBC affiliate and watch The Office. Failure to do so could result in disciplinary action.
In my humble opinion, The Office is the world’s greatest employment law training aid. All you have to do is (1) watch it and (2) do the exact opposite of everything you see.
Tonight’s episode is entitled “Frame Toby.” Here’s NBC’s official description: “A mysterious person in the office has made a huge mess in the microwave and refuses to clean it up.”
Tomorrow, I’ll post my analysis detailing exactly what I would tell Dunder Mifflin if I were its lawyer. Anyone who spots an employment law issue that I missed will be entitled to a valuable prize.
As always, thanks for your participation!
