Law and Order, the show that wouldn’t die, airs its 20th season premiere tonight. In honor of that huge anniversary, Examiner.com has collected a list of workplace lessons you should have learned from past episodes of the show, including:
Literacy is important in any profession. When drug dealer Michael Ingrams is stiffed by a real estate agent in a deal, he needs to get revenge for the fraud. Obviously, it only makes good business sense to hire a contractor to do this dirty work for him, but little does he know his teenage hit man is illiterate. As a result, the hired killer goes to work at the wrong house. (Episode: Mushrooms, Season 1)
If you want to get revenge on a rival colleague, make sure you know where he lives. Physicist Edward Manning steals a revolutionary scientific idea from struggling scientist Max Weiss. Weiss, who is having trouble supporting his family, gets revenge by sending a bomb to his rival. However, he didn’t realize that Manning had moved when he separated from his wife, and as a result the unsuccessful scientist ends up killing her instead. (Episode: Big Bang, Season 4)
The rest is here.
