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 tonight’s NEW episode of 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: Pool Party. Here’s NBC’s official description: “After Robert decides to sell his mansion following his divorce, Kevin convinces him to have an office pool party; Erin tries to make Andy jealous.” For more, click here.

OFFICIAL “ARE YOU SMARTER THAN A LAWYER?” CONTEST. Tune in tomorrow to see my detailed analysis of the episode and exactly what I would tell the company if I were its lawyer. Anyone who spots an employment law issue that I missed will win a valuable prize.

Enjoy!
