Why do you have 2 different outlets? Different amperage/voltage?

Actually, if you zoom in, you'll see that the third "hole" on the top one is a screw holding the cover in place lol

That can't be safe right? Surely the screw should be placed somewhere without contact of the plug.

As long as it's grounded it's fine. I'd be more concerned about someone plugging in a device that needs grounding into a socket like that.

very few things need grounding. Plus I have no ground wire to the outlet so i would argue it is safer to not have the grounding socket there.
